MacFarlane was applied to, he declared that no letter ordering a horse had been delivered in his establishment. From that day to this Mr. Nappie's grey horse has had a great character in Ayrshire; but all the world there says that its owner never rides him as Frank Greystock rode him that day. Sir Griffin Takes an Unfair Advantage
Greystock hadn't come forward as he ought to have done. Lord George professed that he had observed the same thing; but then, as he whispered into Mr. Nappie's ear, Mr. Greystock was particularly known as a bashful man. "He didn't ride my 'orse anyway bashful," said Mr. Nappie; all of which was told at dinner in the evening, amidst a great deal of laughter.
"But Frank wouldn't have had a horse at all," said Lizzie, "unless he had taken Mr. Nappie's." Lord George still continued his plea for Mr. Nappie. "There's something in that, certainly; but, still, I agree with Mrs. Carbuncle. If it had happened to me, I should just have committed murder and suicide. I can't conceive anything so terrible.

"If that ain't Nappie's horse, I'll eat him," said one of the leading men to the other, as all the three were breasting the hill together. Frank only knew that he had been carried over water and timber without a mistake, and felt a glow of gratitude towards Mr. MacFarlane.
If you can't accept him, refuse him, and let somebody else come." "It seems to me," said Lucinda, "that one is as bad as another. I'd a deal sooner marry a shoemaker and help him to make shoes." "That's downright wickedness," said Mrs. Carbuncle. And then they went down to dinner. Nappie's Grey Horse
Up the hill they went, and, not waiting to inquire into the circumstances of a little gate, jumped a four-foot wall and were away. "How the mischief did he get atop of Nappie's horse?" said the horsey man to his friend. "We're about right for it now," said the huntsman, as he came up alongside of Frank.
