I can make it go ramblin' right along; handle it so it's perfectly tame an' gentle take the bit nice an' stand 'thout hitchin'. What d 'ye say? Do we make the horsey go for Mr. Jervice?" "You mean run away with it?" asked Apple. "That wouldn't be right, would it?" "You don't know much 'bout this gang, Apple. Brick's been telling me. He's found out about 'em, Brick has.
Altogether the horsey young gentleman is the most startling representative of "New Japan" I have yet encountered. A cold drizzle ushers in the commencement of my next day's journey.
Egg-cup-fuls of the liquid were exultingly passed round to the wary, suspicious ones; and these proud sceptics by extending to it the charity of their silence most eloquently admitted the groundlessness of their horsey apprehensions. The visit of an envoy from the Boer camp aroused a good deal of curiosity. What did he want? The Colonel would never tell.
There is the figure of Horsey on his little carriage, with several other of the more notable beggars of the day plying their calling, in an etching of old houses at the corner of Chancery Lane and Fleet Street, made by J.T.

There is a wonderful sympathy and freemasonry among horsey men. Be one of them, and you will know all that there is to know. I soon found Briony Lodge.
Up the hill they went, and, not waiting to inquire into the circumstances of a little gate, jumped a four-foot wall and were away. "How the mischief did he get atop of Nappie's horse?" said the horsey man to his friend. "We're about right for it now," said the huntsman, as he came up alongside of Frank.
You were saying that it was a shame of a man to complain of his wife flirting," and the General studied the ceiling. "You know that I never said anything of the kind; some women are flirty in a nice way, just as some are booky, and some are dressy, and some are witty, and some are horsey; and I think a woman should be herself.
