Damage To Ponies
Sir, —Since recent articles in New Zealand riding magazines and Mr N. C. Mahon’s report in your paper, let us hope that the offenders who have so damaged young ponies in the past have been shown the error of their ways. We of today are horrified to hear how young children were once made to work in factories and carry heavy burdens; and yet people in this humane age, ask the same of young ponies and wonder why they are left with a hollow-backed, malformed and permanently lethargic animal.—Yours, etc, B. A. HEARD.
September 12, 1968. [This correspondence is now closed.—Ed, “The Press.”]
