Chapter 112

Odo turned to Jagger. "I have never seen a horse such as this."

"Aye, this is an Arabian, a special horse indeed and bred for its great stamina and endurance. Some men say these horses are intelligent and very gentle."

"Is beautiful and so unusual, it looks like it poses for us."

Charlotte was captivated by the Arabian.

"Have ye made up yer mind? Or do ye require the good marshal to present another two dozen beasts before ye," teased Odo.

She elbowed him in the side. "I cannot take my eyes away from that one." She pointed to the Arabian.

Marshal Hughes stepped over. "The Arabian takes yer fancy, Mistress?"

"Aye, it appears delicate, yet has a strength," she answered.

Marshal Hughes nodded. "These are wonderful horses, and a wise choice."

Jagger nodded in agreement.

The marshal indicated for the other horses to be removed, leaving only the Arabian. The squire held the Arabian by a rope

"Release the rope let her run," Charlotte requested.
