My Last Home

Farmer Thoroughgood and Willie sell Beauty to the Blomefield sisters for use as a carriage horse. Their groom comes to handle the new horse. He questions the farmer about selling a horse with damaged knees, but the farmer insists Beauty has a good temper and is totally safe.

At Beauty's new home, the groom begins to work with him and notices how much this horse is like one he once knew called Black Beauty. When the groom finally realizes it is indeed Beauty, he is delighted. The groom is Joe Green, who cared for Beauty back at Squire Gordon's many years ago. He vows to take good care of Beauty forever. Joe tells his employers about Black Beauty. Miss Ellen Blomefield offers to write to Mrs. Gordon and tell her of Beauty's fate. They give Beauty his old name back and promise they will never sell him. Beauty is happy to know he has found a forever home.
