Mr. Thoroughgood is a gentleman farmer who purchases Black Beauty at a horse fair. He and his grandson, Willie, regularly buy old and abused horses and “make them young again.” Since Black Beauty wasn’t ruined in his youth and is only exhausted and skinny when Mr. Thoroughgood buys him, Black Beauty is an ideal candidate for rehabilitation. Once Black Beauty is feeling better, Mr. Thoroughgood sells him to Miss Ellen, Miss Blomefield, and Miss Lavinia.
