The book begins: A solemn and momentous conference was being held in Dr. Burbank�������s stable. The subject of discussion was old Nettie�������s newborn cold, and those participating in it were Dr. Burbank, Dr. Wragg, the veterinary, and Josh Thibber. The three of them stood just outside old Nettie�������s stall, leaning their elbows on the lower half of the stall door, peering in at Nettie and her colt as they talked.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
