HALTER

Volume 5 · 79 words · 1810 Edition

in the manage, a head-stall for a horse, of Hungary leather, mounted with one, and sometimes two straps, with a second throat-band, if the horse is apt to unhalter himself.

HALTER-Caft, is an excoriation of the pattern, occasioned by the halter's being entangled about the foot, upon the horse's endeavouring to rub his neck with his hinder feet. For the cure of this, anoint the place, morning and evening, with equal quantities of linseed oil and brandy, well mixed.
