Desperate owner sells lame horse after nail claim
Tompkins bought a five hundred dollar horse that proved lame in the right shoulder after months. He tried remedies with veterinarians, grew desperate, and sold the horse for two hundred dollars to a blacksmith who, while paring the hoof, found a nail in the frog. Tompkins calmly notes the lameness is actually in the shoulder, not cured by the purchase. The tale ends with the hammering truth of the misfortune.
