 by Frost makes 140 days. Foxes Killed 101. 



Ran to ground 43 accounting for 144 Foxes. 



Although it is certain, owing to the number of coverts 

 (b'awn 'blank during this season, that there were not a 

 great quantity of foxes, yet Stevens and Morris were death 

 u])on them. This feat of killing fifty brace of foxes was, 

 we believe, only twice ecjualled afterwards, when Jones, 

 huntsman to the late Jjord Willoughby de Broke, killed 

 the same number, and the present Jjord Willoughby, 

 hunting his <r\vn hounds, killed lOl foxes in the season of 

 1^93-1891.
