The Bedale Hounds, 1832-1908 131 



for four weeks, there were three successive 

 days of good sport. 



On the 20th January met at Cowton 

 Station. Found in the New Whin at Hutton 

 Bonville, and ran by the Old Whin up to the 

 Fox Covert ; over the Northallerton and 

 Darlington road, by Lovesome Hill towards 

 Brompton. The fox turned north from near 

 here, and ran by Deighton to Appleton 

 Wiske, over the Wiske, through Hornby 

 Whin, out towards High Worsall; being 

 headed short of this place he turned back, 

 and was killed in the Whin after a very good 

 gallop of an hour. 



On the 21st January hounds met at 

 Constable Burton. They found at once, 

 and ran very fast to within one field of 

 Spennithorne Wood, turned left-handed from 

 here between Croft Wood and Finghall, as 

 if for Wild Wood. Near Finghall village 

 the fox bore right-handed towards Marri- 

 forth, and leaving this covert on the left, 

 went on to Danby-on-Yore, and eventually 

 making his first point good, got to ground 

 in Spennithorne Wood, after a quick gallop 

 of one hour. 



On the 23rd January hounds met at Kirk- 

 lington village. A fox found in KirkHngton 

 Wood was killed almost at once. A second 

 was found in Horse Close Wood, and ran 

 across to Norton Conyers, where he got to 

 ground — twenty-five minutes. 



Hounds then went to Newton House, where 

 a leash of foxes were on foot in Gatenby
