248 WARWICKSHIRE HUNT. 



On the hill pug effected a bargain, they say. 

 With some other fox, which he met by the way. 

 And persuaded his friend, as a matter of grace, 

 To lead on the hounds at a rare merry pace. 

 By Knoll End to Edge Hill, which quickly he gain'd. 

 While safely at Dassett the first fox remain' d. 

 From Edge Hill to Shennington pug dash'd along. 

 To Epwell White House^ erst so famous in song ; 

 When he took to a drain, and lucky for pug, 

 As he there sav'd his brush, his pads, and his lug ! 



In describing this run, Whoo-Whoop says — 

 Radbourne Gorse, this morning, produced us a good fox. 

 As soon as reynard was unkenneled he went off at the very 

 best pace to Watergall. There we changed our fox for one 

 of the right sort, who took us in most gallant style to Farn- 

 borough. Leaving that place to the left, reynard went off, 

 first to Knoll End, and then on to Epwell, and at length we 

 ran him into a drain that leads to the cellars. This was the 

 best day that I ever saw in Warwickshire. 



The hounds behaved uncommonly well during the whole 

 of the run ; and many gentlemen present, good judges of 

 the chase, spoke highly of their speed, steadiness, and style 

 of hunting. 



BY WHOO-WHOOP.— UPTON, jan. 5. 

 This day afforded us another good run. We drew and 

 found at Lord Northampton's. Our fox went to Shen- 

 nington ; left that to the right, and then made straight for 

 Upton House ; on to Edge Hill, and then to Warmington ; 

 from this place he came back to Knoll End. Here reynard 

 was killed after a most excellent run of one hour and 30 

 minutes.
