As a proof of his superior horsemanship, he went through one of the divisions while going over a five-barred gate, to the wonder and terror of all present. It is here but justice to notice, that, at the request of several noblemen and military officers who were present, a large painting has been taken by Dean Wolstenholme, who has succeeded in the manner of action and likeness of both man and horse so happily, that the best judges pronounce it - a picture of great merit''.
