322 WARWICKSHIRE HUNT. 



Mar, 5. — Met at Mitford Bridge, drew Wichford, 

 and found a fox that went direct away for RoUright, and 

 then turned short back to the same wood. We ran him in 

 the wood for some time, and he again went to Rollright, 

 where he was turned up, after a rxin of one hour and 25 

 minutes. We next drew Wolford-heath, blank, and the 

 hounds returned liome. 



Mar. 7. — Met at Princethorpe, and found reynard this 

 morning at Frankton. After giving us two rings in the 

 wood, he went away through the Popels, by Lester's Piece, 

 and we lost him at Tomlow. We returned again and found 

 another in the Bull and Butcher covert, and ran him on to 

 Wappenbury-wood, where the hounds divided. Having 

 stopped the hounds and got them together, the wind was 

 so high we could not hear them speak, and they were taken 

 home. 



Mar. 9. — After meeting at Lighthorne, we drew the 

 wood at Chesterton, blank, but foixnd a fox near to the cover 

 at Itchington-heath, that led us away to Chadshunt, then to 

 Lighthorne Rough, where he ran to ground. We were then 

 hallood to a fresh fox at Moreton, ran him through that 

 covert to Frizhill, and then to Walton, where reynard made 

 to Bowshot, bore away to Lighthorne, and earthed in the 

 same drain that had afforded protection to our first fox. 



Mar. 12. — The fixture was at Wellesboume Village, but 

 it was so very wet, they could not throw off. There was a 

 Meeting to-day about the hounds, and Mr. Thornhill 

 agreed to continue to hunt them. 



Mar. 17. — Met at Mitford Bridge, and Wolford-wood 

 furnished us with a fox, which led away first to Hanging 

 Aston, and then through Lord Redesdale's Park, over to
