APPENDIX I. 



NOTE. The first two hounds mentioned, Myrmidon and Mindful, 

 bred in Col. Thornton's kennel apparently, may have strained back to 

 the family of the celebrated Merkin the fastest hound of her day 

 noticed in Appendix VIII., and carried the best blood in England, 

 Colonel Thornton's and Mr. Osbaldeston's packs having been by far 

 the best bred and stoutest in the kingdom. 



A famous InnUmi; hound.
