Uncle has gone to town.” “No, indeed,” answered Master A.; “how can you do what you say? Has not uncle forbid us to ride them?” But Master T. did not attend to what his brother said. He took one of the horses and rode him, but was thrown and severely hurt; and having disregarded his uncle’s commands, he lost his good opinion, and lay ill for three weeks, and during the Christmas and New Year Holidays. 8.
