out of training. Latterly Mr. Greville, from being
the confederate of Mr. Payne, has trained with Alec Taylor at
Fyfield; but with Godding he has generally two or three at
Newmarket.
'In turning to Mr. Greville in his private capacity we hardly
know how to treat him, for his is a nature that shrinks from
having his good deeds brought before the glare of the public eye.
No man, ever so high or low, we believe, ever sought his advice
and assistance in vain; and to no one individual, probably, have
so many and such various difficulties been submitted. Neither can
we remember a new trial or even an appeal demanded by those who
had sought his counsel. Beloved by his friends, and feared by his
opponents, Mr. Greville will ever be considered one of the most
remarkable men that have lent lustre to the English turf.'
