128 WARWICKSHIRE HUNT. 



FROM TALLY-HO. 



MEET LOUD NORTHAMPTON'S, 1817. 



We had a very good Field out this morning at Lord 

 Northampton's, where we found a fox that we killed after 

 a run of half an hour. 



We next drew Pillerton Gorse, and found a fine old 

 fox that soon broke cover, and led us, at a famous pace, 

 to Lord Willoughby's. Then striking off to the right, he 

 ran forward to Moreton Wood. Here he turned, and made 

 quick away to Oakley Wood. After shifting for some time 

 in this cover, he passed through the Wood, and went off 

 to High Down Hill, and on to Whitnash. Here the hounds 

 pressed closely upon him, with a capital scent, and he was 

 killed in Whitnash Fields. This run lasted for 70 minutes, 

 without a check, and many of the horses had fallen off 

 before it was finished. 



THE SAME. BY ^ ENATOR. 



' That echo ! see, yonder he flies, 



How quickly he speeds o'er the plain ! 



His art ev'ry cunning contrives, 

 Alas ! all his runnings is vain ! 



A good Field out, and soon we found 

 A fox, alas ! who'd not the power 



To stand before the well-trained hound 

 More than the space of half an hour. 



Mov'd on again in spirits high 



And speedily Pillerton Gorse drew. 



From whence a noble fox did fly. 



The moment, almost, that we off threw.
