9. Halt of Cavalry at a Sutler’s Booth. The composition
offers on the left, a booth, erected round a tree, at which a
party of cavalry have halted to refresh, one of whom has
alighted from a grey horse, which is feeding out of a sack,
and is seated at the head of his steed ; a second stands by,
with his hands behind his back, looking at a bay horse, near
which is a third soldier : close to the left is a trumpeter, in a
scarlet coat, on an iron-grey horse, with his back to the spec-
tators ; two other soldiers, also mounted, are in the group ;
a boy and a dog are close to the front; the opposite side
opens over' a hilly country. A good example of the master.

her, and a third is kneeling, with her back to the spectator.
