ii8 Season 1860-1861. 



pace much time was lost, and though eventually the line was 

 hit off through Picton Plantation, yet the fox was too far gone, 

 so gave it up after a very pretty run of 43 minutes. Found a 

 second fox beautifully in Worsall Gill, ran through the Muir 

 Cover, then a ring towards Fardenside and back to the Gill, 

 then broke away to the South across Worsall Moor to the Toll 

 Bar Cover, just through a corner of it, and then away to 

 Waldy's Plantations and forward to Moor Bank, through it, 

 and then turned back to Falkland's Whin, through it and 

 Waldy's Plantations again and back nearly to the Toll Bar 

 again, then right away to Worsall Gill Cover again. Here 

 three foxes were on foot, and two broke together, running 

 coupled for some distance and then split, one with 14 couples 

 of hounds running East, the other going West, and followed by 

 seven couples of hounds, and as no one was with them they 

 lost near Beverley Wood. The 14 couples rattled their fox 

 away to the Toll Bar Cover, and then forward to Waldy's 

 Plantations, where he dodged for some time, but at last they 

 made it too hot for him, and fairly forced him into open, and 

 killed him in fine style, after running hard for one hour and 

 three-quarters without even a check of any moment — a cub 

 bitch fox. A very fine, sunny day, moderate scent, had 21 

 couples of hounds out. Rode Mr. Scurfield's grey horse, and, 

 being short of work for such a hard day, he compounded, I 

 then got on to Mr. Jno. Waldy's chestnut horse, and he soon 

 cried " enough," and lastly I was splendidly carried to the 

 death on Mr. Rowe's grey horse — a very hard day for horses, 

 hounds and men. Out : The Squire and Mrs. Wilkinson, 

 Messrs. T. W., Ed., and John Waldy, H. Fowle, A. Rowe, 

 Temple, J. Colling, R. White, T. Harrison, G. Brown, G. 

 Stonehouse and L. H. Parrington, who was charmingly carried
