To the Editor of the "Norrm-Caixa Dairy New!
£1r,—The reference in your interesting "Notes and Comments" to the pitiable terror of horses on the battlefield, recalls a weird incident described by @ writer who spent a lonely night on the deserted battlefield of Sedan in 1870, immediately after the disastrous defeat of the French. He writes:—As the night progressed towards day-break—the darkness by contrast seemed darker and the silence more oppreesive—no living thing had yet disturbed either eye or ear. a time, however, there was a sound from the direction of the forest. It grew louder, and soon one could recognize the galloping of horses, not an ordinary gallop but a mad one.
