THE EXPORT OF HORSES

[To the Editor of the SPECTATOR]

Snt,—I admire very much your splendid work on behalf of animals, and have been wondering when a Bill is going to be pissed putting an end to the export of worrt-out horses.

Surely if a direct appeal in Press or otherwise were made to those who own horses, e.g., "Can you bear it that the horses you love and who love you are to end their lives in such a cruel fashion, &c., &c., ? they would do their best to have such a law passed. I think that only a small minority of voters know of this cruelty.—! am, Sir, &c., D. KENNEDY.
