130 SPORT WITH 



SEASON OF 1903-1904. 



A very late harvest, and only began cub-hunt- 

 ing on August 31st. 



December 4th, 1903. — Met at Darlton. Found 

 in a turnip field by Ragnall, ran up to Marnham, 

 then back, ran two rings about Fledbro', on to 

 Dunham ; here a long check, but hunted him on 

 to Laneham Village, on for Rampton, and getting 

 on better terms with him, killed him before he got 

 to Rampton Thorns. Real good work of hounds for 

 two hours and fifteen minutes. Then found in 

 Treswell Wood, ran to Cadows, Clarbro' tunnel, 

 Mormon Wood, etc., but scent had quite changed. 

 Bitches, 20 couples. 



December 14th, 1903. — Met at Gringley. 

 Found in the gorse, ran below the village to the 

 canal bank. Here the hounds divided, but I went 

 on with one lot all over the low ground and gave 

 up near Scaftworth. Having got all the hounds, we 

 got up to a fox by Drakeholes, ran up to Gringley 

 Village, to his left over the canal, along the low 

 ground round by Drakeholes to Wiseton, then 

 over the river, and killed him by Mattersey. 

 Then killed a tired fox in Pusto Hill, and ran 

 another to ground. Sidney Smith overhead in 

 Mattersey Abbey Ford. Dogs, 19J couples.
