In the summer of 1741, Charles Pratt had for three years ridden the Western Cir- cuit — the circuit on which his lather, Sir John Pratt, for years discharged the office of judge — when his horse sud- denly died at a western assize-town. Without clients, and without large private resources, the young circuiteer reluctantly bought a fresh horse to replace the brute which had dropped in the middle of the legal round. Ac- cidents with horseflesh never come singly ; and scarcely 112 PLEASANTRIES OF ...ENGLISH had Pratt purchased his new steed, when it turned up lame. " ALas !" he wrote to a friend, soon after his re- turn to town, " my horse is lamer than ever — no sooner cured of one shoulder than the other began to halt. My losses in horseflesh ruin me, and keep me so poor that I have scarce money enough to bear me in a summer ramble ; yet ramble I must, if I starve to pay for it. " The son of a country parson was more cruelly pressed than the son of a Chief Justice. When lazy, keen-eyed, luquacipus Ned Thurlow had eaten his dinner and donned a bar gown, he was sorely perplexed as to means for procuring a horse.
