From an auction catalogue:--

"PRINCESS, Brown Mare, 7 years, 15-3, has been ridden by a

nervous person, good manners, trained to the High School,

Hant-le-Cole."

_Haute Êcole_ manners are usually of the best and we are glad that

Hant-le-Cole, which we have been unable to find on the map, provides

no exception.
