SIR, 



AS I cannot conveniently attend in perfon 

 at your celebrated Repofitory at London, and 

 being in great want of fuch a kind of horfe, 

 as I fhall fpecify below, and as I prefume 

 in your own Stud you have more than one, 

 fuch once victorious Steed on the Turf, 

 though fuperannuated for the Race, yet ca- 

 pable of eafy Road exercife (and the Writer 

 here pretends to be as good an Horfe-mafter 

 as^ any in the Univerfe), I confide on your 

 fuppos'd candour to excufe this liberty, after 

 much debating in my mind, to write imme- 

 diately to yourfelf (having heard laft fummer 

 Mr. Score, a Flint- merchant, fpeak much to 

 your praife, who dines, he faid, often at 

 your Ordinary) . I hope, therefore, you will 

 indulge a Stranger's requeil, as mofl proba- 

 bly you may have fuch a Steed (in your 

 own Stud) to difpofe of; v/hich will be 

 efteemed a lingular favour to your unknown? 

 at prefent, though 



Very humble Servant,
