Hundreds of these American horses were bought from the French when the first forces from the United States landed. The drivers were constantly in trouble, and at first couldn’t un- derstand the reason, “I had a team out during a’ Te- view,” smid one driver, ‘‘and couldn’t make ‘em budge. 1 yelled “git-up’ and everything else at em, and they inst, sort of looked aroun’ like: they thought I was foolish. ‘Then I re- membered that I heard a frog yell and away we went.” The horses are now a good dea,l like the soldier.
