Note 249 — ALICE HAWTHORN.[248]

Reading edition

Mr. Salvin purchased her of Mr. Plummer; and in another song, after enumerating "the noble prizes she won, with courage bold," concludes:—

"Unto my song I'll make an end, until I write again, Success to Mr. Hesseltine her noble trainer's name, Likewise to Mr. Plummer, who she often makes to smile, And may they every coming year in racing annals shine."
