ABUSES 



THAT ARE GONE ABROAD. 



I AM repeatedly told, by respectable people^ 

 and from all quarters, that it is talked in their 

 counties that Chifney lost intentionally upon His 

 Royal Highness the Prince of Wales's horse 

 Escape, at Newmarket, on the 20th of October 

 1791 ; and after Escape had pulled up on this 

 said race to walk back to scale, that Chifney was 

 laughing to the Prince of Wales because he had 

 got Escape beat ; and then, to suit their wicked 

 construction, they said, and I find that it is sent 

 out to the w^orld, that the Prince won such an 

 immense sum of money upon Escape the follow- 

 ing day ; and that the Prince gives Chifney two 

 hundred guineas a year for his life after l)is losing 

 this said race with Escape.
