MR. J. CORBET— 1804. 61 



lasted for half an hour, and the hounds turned him up at 

 Walton ; all the time the hounds were very near to their 

 fox. 1 



Nov. 14. — We hunted^ this morning, at Farnborough, 

 and found an old dog fox in the new cover there, which we 

 soon killed. Drew all the covers near Farnborough, but 

 did not find until we came to a gorse near to the Banbury 

 road ; and after a very quick run for half an hour he was 

 killed. We then drew all the covers near Upton, blank. 



Nov. 16. — Found a fox this morning at Itchington ; he 

 soon went away, but from being very frequently headed he 

 was lost. Drew Lord Willoughby's gorse, where we 

 killed a large badger. We then went back to Itchington, 

 where we found another fox, which soon led us away for 

 Chadshunt ; from being frequently headed, he turned back 

 to Itchington, and we killed him after a run of two hours. 

 A good day for the hounds. 



Nov. 23. — We met at Alveston Pastures, and drew that 

 cover and Eatington Grove, blank. We afterwards found 

 a fox at Black Marton, and killed him in cover. Found 

 again near unto Frizhill, when our fox ran through Walton 

 Terrace, and over the country for Kineton ; and although 

 he was among the hounds in the town, he got away ; first 

 pointed for Chadshunt, and then ran very near to Compton ; 

 through Walton Wood, pointing for Wellesbourne, and 

 over the road forward for Moreton, when he left that place 

 on the right ; it being very near dark the hounds were now 

 stopped. 



1 Mr. Corbet's brother, from Nortliamptonsliire, joined the hunt 

 this day.
