The same way they are today - led down a ramp into a stall area (3' x 10" +/-) and tied. They generaly made the trip standing up without exercise or ability to walk around. Fed hay & water during the trip. Did their best to stay standing in rough waters. Depending on the era and the cost - some were treated better than others. Mortality rate for Spanish crossings of the Atlantic (think Cortez, etc.) was 50% +. In the days of Noah trips were shorter. Today you can ship your horse by Fed Ex - loaded into one of those baggage containers and fork lifted into the plane.

Why is a fish called 74?

The fish was named 74 by Captain Alex Anderson who was my Great-Great Uncle. He named it 74 after the French designed sailing ships called 74s as they had 74 guns. The spots down the sides of the fish apparently reminded my uncle of the gun portals of the 74s. A few of these ships were captured by the British copied and used extensively by them.
