To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In nineteen cases out of twenty, therefore, a man is quite justified in declining to value a horse brought to him for sale. The owner ought to know his value : if he does not, when he comes to be shown to the public, that will very shortly enlighten him in SOME FOLKS MAY BE TOO WELL KNOWN. 351 this particular ; for though this man or that may not be a judge of such matters, the public is, and a very good one* Now we will see why it would be injudicious to state to whom horses for sale belong. O...wners very frequently do not wish this to be done, for various reasons ; but if they did, and the salesman was to tell this, the consequence would be, what I dare say the generality of persons never dreamt of — he would be lucky if he got his commission on half the horses he sold. It may be said that gentlemen will not be guilty of ungentlemanlike acts. To this doctrine on a broad scale I fully subscribe ; but I must also say there are a great many who will. Besides this, all the horses sent to a Repository are not sent by gentlemen, nor are they all gentlemen who treat for them : conse- quently, unless a salesman knows his customer very well, in justice to himself he must take care that he does not give the opportunity for such things taking place with him.
