HISTORY OF THE KILDARE HUNT 



Hill, Geoghanstown, crossed the river, and re- 

 crossed it through Homans and Whiteleas, on for 

 Hollywood, where we killed in the open. A fine run 

 of one hour and a quarter." 



March continued the story of excellent sport. 

 There was a capital day from a Sallins meet on the 

 I St, with a find at Kerdiifstown, away in view 

 through Palmerstown and on to Kill Hill, then a 

 turn back over exactly the same country with a 

 kill in Kerdiifstown close to where he was found. 

 A fast and capital run. They went on to Eads- 

 town, found, went away through Craddockstown, 

 Killashee, Mullacash, Danestown, Newberry, fin- 

 ishing an excellent day's sport with a kill at Harris- 

 town Bridge. Thursday, the 8th, after yielding 

 a fast fifteen minutes from Corbally round the hill 

 and across towards Davidstown to a kill in the open, 

 provided also one of the best hunting runs of the 

 year. They found at Moone, went away well to 

 Davidstown, on to Heustown, then through Strand- 

 ford Lodge to the Slaney, crossed and back to 

 Henstown and Corbally and into Saunders Grove, to 

 ground after two hours and a half of good hunting. 



On the 15th there was a fine run of forty minutes 

 from Cryhelp to ground beyond Jackdaw Glen; on 

 the 17th another of one hour from Turnings to 

 ground near Straff an. Here, too, is a record of an 

 interesting day on the 24th.
