my earliest memories are a confusion of hilly fields and dark damp stables,and the rats that scampered over my head on the beams. Forty pounds you’ll pay me, Captain Nicholas, like you promised yesterday?’ Albert’s father
said in a voice that was unnaturally low, almost as if he did not want to be heard by anyone else.‘My son rides him out every day,’ said Albert’s father. ‘Goes like a racer, jumps like a hunter he
tells me.’
‘Well,’ said the officer, ‘as long as our vet passes him as fit and sound in wind and limb, you’ll
have your forty pounds, as we agreed Captain Nicholls led me away through the archway opposite the public house and into a large
garden beyond where there were men in white coats and a uniformed clerk sitting down at a table
taking notes. I thought I heard old Zoey calling after me, so I shouted back to reassure her for I felt no
fear at this moment. I was too interested in what was going on around me.So that same afternoon after our capture, Topthorn and I were hitched up side by side to an old
hay cart and with the officer directing two orderlies, we were driven up through the woods back
towards the thunder of the gunfire and the wounded that awaited us.Even the auctioneer had been stunned into silence, and there was some delay before he brought his
hammer down on the table and I was sold.
