Narrator says that however I am not favored by Muse (goddess of poetry) as William Copper is but I will try to throw light on the subject of equestrian (horse riding) adventures of Jamadarji. Jamadarji was fond of delusion of grandeur and considered himself a champion of horse riding and philosophical person. To support this idea he was using to wear an ancient pair of horn-rimmed glasses. His legs were thin as rickets. His mustaches were always in standing position at all critical moments however in peaceful times it would again resume to its parallel handle bar position. Jamadarji was having huge bulging belly about which he could not tolerate any non sense. His shoulders were square and face was many chinned. His smile was 'alarming one' means he was having fearful smile, his lips were fat and teeth were irregular. Jamadarji was having a bald spot on his head about which the whole is about. Narrator says whenever I pass near the stable I increase my pace to avoid Jamadarji because his favorite hobby was to trape that person who shows a remotest interest in his horses. While passing through his stable the narrator heard a pinching shriek from the stable he ran toward and entered to stable. The sight that was in front of narrator was enough to make him jump out of his skin. The Jamadarji who was at the wrong side of forty was sitting on the pile of gross twenty feet above the ground. The narrator congratulated him but asked it does not suite your age Jamadarji. The Jamadarji pointed his finger towards a black mustang (An American horse) the narrator replied him yes Is see it is horse. The Jamadarji shouted you call it horse as you havn't seen horses in your life it is 'Deceased'. Now the narrator said in astonished way; what do you mean Jamadarji? Jamadarji said first let me down then I will tell you. The narrator put a ladder on the other side of pile and Jamadarji came down. Jamadarji told story in may pauses that when he closed the door of stable and was establishing good relation with horse, the horse suddenly starts taking interest in his belly about which Jamadrji was intolerant he slapped on the head of black horse and in a reaction the Jamadarji was down on a ground. The horse kicked and bites Jamadarji, after this painful introduction with horse no one was able to convince Jamadarji to go near the horse. He would swear that it is not horse rather then it is 'deceased.'
