picture. Lord Yarborough is riding Ivan in the picture. 

 He was by Ivan, and was bought of Mr. Holmes, of 

 Beverley. Another good hunter was Esca, by Boling- 

 broke, the winner of several steeplechases. Lord and 

 Lady Yarborough both rode Esca at times. Two grey 

 mares, Duchess and Queen Mab — the latter a thorough- 

 bred — also carried Long well. 



The Hunt picture was painted by Lutyens in 1875, 

 in which Lady Yarborough is riding John Brown. Dick 

 Yeo, the first whipper-in, who is holding the gate open, is 

 on Zig-zag ; and Will Burton, the second whipper-in, is on 

 Beverley. Lord Worsley, the present Lord Yarborough, 

 is just behind his father, and Lady Gertrude Pelham, 

 now Lady Gertrude Astley-Corbett, and the Hon. Victor 

 Pelham, are also in the picture. Of the hounds. Royal, 

 looking up at the Master's horse, and Ambrose are the 

 most prominent, the beautiful bitch Gipsy has her head 

 down, and Garland, Proctor, Aider, Glory, and Rocket are 

 the others.
