The Bedale Hounds, 1832-1908 45 



the Harrier Kennels, nearly to Boroughbridge, 

 and following the banks of the Yore for about 

 a mile, killed their fox in the river. He un- 

 fortunately sank, and hounds lost their well- 

 earned reward. One and three quarter hours.

 Baldersby to Norton Conyers, eight miles 

 from there to Boroughbridge. 



2nd April. Met at Thornborough Bar. 

 Found in Horse Close Wood, and ran over

 through the old Whin, across the Park up 

 to Hutton Conyers, turned northwards from 

 here by Melmerby Wood, across the Leeming 

 Lane nearly to Rainton ; bore right-handed 

 from here to near Dishforth, then again 

 to the left ; and owing to some very dry 

 fallows, hounds were run out of scent close 

 to Leckby Carr. Two and a half hours. 



1841—42. 14th April. Met at Hartforth. 

 Found in the Wood, and after running over 

 Aske Moor to Whitley Scar, up to Apple- 

 garth, to Clinty Scar, by Helwith pointing

 Scar, but Mr. Milbank stopped them, as they 

 had been hunting for three hours and he 

 was short of a good many hounds, which, 

 however, he got together before his return 

 to kennel. 



1842—43. 24th October. On this date 

 hounds killed two and a half brace of foxes. 

 One brace from Solberg, after short scurries ;
