JOHN E. FERNELEY 1 67 



" The Lambton Hounds at Feedino- Time," was 

 painted in 1832 and exhibited at the gallery of the 

 Society of British Artists. The figure by the 

 kennel door is Fenwick Hunnum, the feeder. This 

 picture was engraved in 1833. 



"Breaking Cover" was painted in 1833. This 

 work contained portraits of members of the Sedge- 

 field Hunt ; it was presented to Mr. Ralph Lamb- 

 ton at a dinner given in March, 1S33, by Mr. 

 Fawcett, on behalf of the subscribers. 



Filagree and Cobweb : two race-horses with 

 foals ; painted for Lord Jersey. 



Velocipede and The Cur : two race-horses ; 

 painted for Mr. Crawford. 



" Waiting for a Shot at Roedeer " : a portrait of 

 John Henry Bouclitch, for forty-five years head 

 keeper to the Earl of Kintore. 



"The Horse Fair" and "The Cattle Market." 

 These were two of Ferneley's latest works ; their 

 interest is largely due to the artist's introduction 

 therein of equine portraits, and of " horsey " char- 

 acters of note at the time. 



He painted the portrait of Samuel Dumbleton, 

 for twenty-three years whipper-in to the Earl of 

 Spencer's hounds under the two Richard Knights. 

 This picture was drawn on stone by Miss 

 Ferneley, the artist's daughter, and published by 

 Ferneley himself at Melton Mowbray in 1834.
