. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. Vol. IX. No. 12. No. 508 MONTGOMERY STREET SAN FRANCISCO, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1886 SUBSCRIPTION FIVE DOLLARS A TEAR Sporting: Notes. Lieut. Henn, owner of the Galatea, is an Irishman, and is not yet forty. He has seen service, first on the Britannia, as naval cadet and midshipman, then, until 1S66 on the Galatea, under the Dnke of Edinburgh. He was promoted to Lieut! in 1867, and until 1871 served on board the Daphne and Dryad, and had a share in the Abyssinian war, and in sup- pressing the slave trade off the coast of Zanzibar, where he assisted in the capture and destruction of seventeen slavers.

But it is a long lane that has no turning.
