Winds of the Isle

A young Irishman is an indentured saddle and yoke apprentice for an elderly master. The young boy is named John Lockridge; the elderly master is Master Haughton. One day, John has a brilliant idea for a new winning saddle. He has created a winner. Master Haughton was horrified when he began to explain a new saddle that was even more advanced than the design that Master Haughton's leather shop was working on. Soon, John's saddle began to win. The Irish racing mobsters took notice. The new saddle wins so many races that the mobsters had a contract on John's head. His father offered Britt, an Englishman, a lot of money to take John back to England, along with his winning saddle. John and Britt went on their way to England.
