PREFACE 



T'HE following papers appeared in " Bell's Life in 

 London," Sporting paper, during last season, 

 and, independently of their reference to foxhunting 

 generally, form a slight Souvenir of that extremely 

 favourable winter — the best hunting one in the 

 author's recollection; as such, he respectfully dedi- 

 cates them to his brother sportsmen. 



191, Regent Street, London, 

 October, 1846.
