lOH HUNTING AND SPOBTING NOTES. 



season, I shall hope to renew these notes in dear old 

 Eddoioes's Journal, and so to create in a humble ;way a 

 treasury of hunting and sporting knowledge in Shropshire, 

 which will aspire to fulfil the words of Wordsworth, 

 when he says — 



*' And when the stream 

 Which overflowed the soul was passed away, 

 A consciousness remained that it had left, 

 Deposited upon the silent shore 

 Of memory, Images, and precious thoughts. 

 That shall not die, and cannot be destroyed."
