32 Black BeautyOne day my master and mistress decided to visit some friends. They lived about seventy-five kilometres away from our home. %u201cYou can drive us, James,%u201d said Mr. Gordon.We went about fifty kilometres in one day and we stopped for the night at a big hotel in Aylesbury. An hour later, a man came to the hotel on a horse. One of the hotel grooms brought the horse to the stable. The man smoked in the stable and then he went to his room. I couldn%u2019t sleep because I felt sad. I didn%u2019t know why I was unhappy.Later, I saw the smoke in the stable. There was smoke everywhere very soon. I couldn%u2019t see well. The other horses, Ginger and I tried to go out, but we couldn%u2019t. I saw James next to me.%u201cCalm down, Beauty! It is time to go,%u201d said James. He took me out but, he went into the stable again to rescue Ginger. I was worried about them. I felt happy when I saw them coming out of the stable.Mr. Gordon was there. He hugged James and said, %u201cAre you OK, James? You%u2019re a real brave man.%u201dThe rest of our trip was really simple, and the next day we got to our master%u2019s friend%u2019s house. A stable worker took us to a nice stable. We stayed there for two or three days, and then we went back home. John was happy to see us, and we were happy to see him too.James asked, %u201cWho will take my place after I leave?%u201d%u201cLittle Joe Green. He is only fourteen, but he is very hardworking. But we will miss you much,%u201d said John.smoketo rescuevery small piece of carbon that is produced when something is burnsto help someone or something out of a dangerous harmful or unpleasant situation::Glossary
