THE WILLEY KENNELS. 91 



invincibly stout, and perfectly just in every point 

 tliat constitutes your real true fox hound." 



"WiLLEY, April 19, 1795. 



"Dear Sir, 



" Per bearer I send you yr couple of bitches 

 I promised you. The largest is near a year old, 

 the lesser about half a one, and if she be permitted to 

 walk about your bouse this summer, will make you a 

 clever bitch ; further, she's of Grace Grafton's kind, 

 as her father was got by his Grace's Toucher, and 

 bred by Mr. Pelham. Blood imdeniable, at a cer- 

 taintij. As to yr dam of her, she's of my old sort, 

 and a bitch of blood and merit. The other bitch I 

 bred also, to ye best of my judgment, from a dog of 

 Pelham' s. I call her handsome in my eye, and 

 not far off being a beauty. Her dam was got by 

 Noel's famous Maltster, out of a daughter of Mr. 

 Corbet, of Sundorn, named Trojan. I wish you 

 luck and success with your hounds, and when I can 

 serve you to effect, at any time, you may rely on my 

 faithful remembrance of you. 

 "I remain, dear sir, 



''Your very humble servant, 



" G. Forester.
