Tyziman said he knew the match was all of my 

 making, and that he was very sure that I could 

 let him off the fifty guineas if I pleased. 



I told Mr. Tyziman that I had nothing to do 

 about Traveller and Cavendish being matched, 

 neither could I be of any service to him in his 

 bet- 



I do not know that I should have made Mr. 

 Tyziman any answer, only before this I had much 

 respect for him, as I did and do think him a 

 good trainer. I had just marked him out with 

 the intention of recommending him as a fit per- 

 son for His Royal Highness's service as a training- 

 groom ; but after I found he knew more about 

 me than I knew of myself, and seeing him ca- 

 pable of pressing to be off a fifty-guinea bet at a 

 time which was so very unseasonable, I believed 

 this sort of conduct of Mr. Tyziman's was not fit 

 for a prince's servant. It was likewise said at 

 Newmarket I rode Traveller a cheat the first day 

 at York, to back him for the Thursday's race.
