A Fisherman's Balky Horse and the Tide's Test
A fisherman owned a horse that balked at moving until ready. At low tide the horse refused to cross, so the fisherman left both boat and wagon in the water and walked ashore. As the tide rose, the wagon floated, the horse crept ashore, then fled, yet balking persisted. The tale, recounted from the New York Sun, ends with the notion that the horse finally found a master in its stubborn ways.
