HORSE-DEALING 



two days a week in Leicestershire was Phillip 

 Hubbersty. He lived about six miles from my 

 stable at John Gaunt and hunted every Tuesday 

 and most Saturdays with the Cottesmore. He was 

 a very good man over a country. 



A very sad thing happened a few months ago — 

 the death of Harry Gale. I had known him a 

 great many years, and he worked for us buying 

 horses in Ireland. I could not possibly have had 

 a better man — so capable, so absolutely honest. 

 I had the greatest admiration for him. He had 

 not an enemy in the world, and he had a host of 

 friends. He had lived in Northampton after leaving 

 Ireland, and he always came over to pay me a visit 

 two or three times a week. 



Again I was very lucky in having such a good 

 girl, Miss Marriott, in the office. You could not 

 improve on her in any respect — so intelligent and 

 capable, and so nice to everyone, rich and poor 

 alike.
