Echoes of the Hunting Horn 



occurs. When he is brought into close proximity to 

 the pack he should be led, not ridden, so that should 

 anything startle him suddenly he will have less chance 

 of pivoting and lashing-out at hounds. 



A little care at first will work wonders, and time and 

 experience will do the rest. Real education cannot be 

 imparted hurriedly and one cannot expect to transform 

 a nerrous young horse into a Leicestershire aristocrat 

 in one day. 



The running of a hunt is no easy matter, and a Master 

 has quite enough to occupy his mind without having 

 his hounds murdered. He is a pretty shrewd judge of 

 his field, and if one realises that hounds are the most 

 important personages at the Meet and acts accordingly 

 one will earn his esteem. On the other hand, if one 

 behaves stupidly when riding a young horse one is 

 actually inviting the Master to lose his temper.
