"204 WARWICKSHIRE HUNT. 



Thus closed one of the most brilliant runs of the season, 

 extending from end to end 12 miles, and occupying an hour 

 and 20 minutes, with but one momentary check near to 

 Highdown. 



The severity of the run was such, that many of the 

 crack horses were completely knocked uj) ; and some few 

 were bled, long previous to the death of the fox, on the 

 field. 



MEET OAKLEY WOOD. 



March 11 — The hounds met on Thursday, at Oakley 

 Wood, where they soon found a fox that went away for 

 Newbold Pacey, over Moreton brook. They continued 

 moving at a slapping pace, without intermission, for a full 

 quarter of an hour, when the scent changed on getting on 

 the limestone. After a short interval, Mr. Fellowes 

 determined upon drawing Chesterton Wood for a fresh fox, 

 in which he was successful. Reynard made the best use of 

 his legs, and went away with the hounds close at his brush ; 

 and although he was a bad fox, he afforded a capital day's 

 sport, and had the run been straight it would have proved 

 a good thing. 



There was a large Field, and the scene was unusually 

 attractive by the number of ladies present in their carriages 

 — among whom were Lady Mostyn, Lady Ongley, Mrs. 

 Nugent, Mrs. Hook, Misses Gregory, &c. &c. 



Mr. Fellowes having signified his intention of giving 

 up the management of the hounds at the close of this 

 season, 1830, the Gentlemen of the County, Subscribers to 

 the Hunt, met at the Warwick Arms, on Wednesday, the 

 2nd of December. During the meeting, J. Russell, Esq. 

 M. P. of Upton House, expressed his willingness, in case 

 no other offer was made, to hunt the Warwickshire country.
