Description  Was a good judge of a horse, and had two or three race horses: “two were Cape but one, a half English bred mare, called Diana, was a special favourite.” A man called Curran, a private in the old 1st European Bengal Fusiliers, looked after her: MacLeod had purchased Curran’s discharge, and “Curran was put up to ride this race where the N.W. [North West] was represented by Sir Charles Oakley’s Mercury and South Ganges by Mr. F. Vincent’s Helen. Diana, being the pride of the Planter community, represented the Blues. ... Diana won by a good neck. The shouts and hurrahs that followed this victory were deafening, and congratulations from all sides were showered on the Highland chief.”
