 the drains to Misson, and over the river, to ground

 Found in Danes Hill Gorse, ran by the railway to 

 Ranskill, to his right, to Blako Hill, on to Ling- 

 hurst, then on to Hayton. I fell at the Old Eau, 

 and my horse was in for an hour and a quarter 

 before they pulled him out with horses. They 

 hunted him on by Tilne and Bolham, and I got 

 to them by Retford Glebe, where they lost him.

April 2nd, 1891. — We had a point-to-point race 

 meeting at Headon Clump. It was a very fine day, 

 many people there, and no serious accident beyond 

 L. BulUvant's collar-bone. The course was all 

 round Headon Clump, so that the spectators could 

 see nearly all the race : it commenced by the brook 

 on the Treswell Wood side, up round a flag near 

 Grove Farm, to the left away to opposite Eaton 

 Wood, round a flag, on to the left, round Headon 

 School-house, winning in Headon Park Field by 

 the Avenue.
