Exhausting morning. Drive G'son to pony - shouldn't be a problem. Pony missing. Pony, with compadres, have escaped to far-distant field. Further complications follow; the Yard is excited by the arrival of a two-in-hand equipage. This has an electrifying effect on the horses and ponies on campus. They gallop about as it passes, they call to each other in distraught whinnies. Are they concerned they might also be asked to do something as demeaning as to pull human beings around in one of these contraptions? Does it bring back Dickensian past lives as ill-used carriage horses? Whatever is happening in the collective unconscious of The Horse the whole place is in uproar. G'son's normally bomb-proof, laid-back, love-of-his-life Star is agitated in the extreme.
