THE MEYNELL HOUNDS. 



[1894 



The afternoon ended up with a race for the farmers, who had a good line of 

 gaps and a rare silver mug to run for, but we were quite incapable of taking 

 any further part in the proceedings after the intense excitement of the ladies' 

 nomination race. 



Whipster. 



ENTERED IN 1893. 



The numerals against hounds' names represent the prize winners. 

 Dogs, 7 couples; bitches, 9 J. Total, 16i couples. 



The pick of the entry turned out to be Lcancer, a hound 

 that Mr. Fort was particularly fond of. Other good ones 

 were Chatterbox — who was mysteriously lost — his sister, 

 Comet, Goodness, and Lullaby, who was not drafted till 

 1900.
