THE BELVOIR HUNT, 39 



Recovering the line, the hounds hunted 

 their fox magnificently to the nursery at 

 Knipton, where the fox was viewed; but, 

 closely pressed, he quitted his quarters, and 

 soon after found an asylum in a bank near 

 Allen's Wood. Here they were joined by 

 the remainder of the pack and the portion 

 of the field which had followed them. A 

 second fox was at home in Tippings 

 Gorse ; he went away to Hungerton 

 Gorse, but a great portion of the field 

 riding to the first couple of hounds that 

 got away brought them to a check, and 

 he was given up. 



They had a good day when they met at 

 Waltham, but as I was not present, I can 

 only describe it as it has been related to 

 me. The hounds found at Croxton Banks. 

 Away, leaving Harston Pasture to the 

 right, straight through Allen's Wood, leav- 

 ing Tipping's Gorse on the right, through 

 Stoke Pasture, and pointing for Stoke
