42 HISTORY OF THE YORK AND A INST Y HUNT. 



sport however, and nothing took place which calls for 

 record. The last day of which an account is given is 

 Monday, March 29th, when they met at Skipwith Bridge 

 and had a day about the Holly Carrs and Skipwith 

 Common, ending with blood. 



The season of 1832-33 was productive of some fine 

 sport, though the best of it came late in the season. On 

 October 25th, they had a good run from Askham Bogs, 

 by Askham Whin, Acomb Grange, and Rufforth to the 

 Boroughbridge road, killing on the drain side on Hessay 

 Moor, at the end of an hour and seventeen minutes. 

 They had a woodland day at Naburn on November 3rd, 

 and twelve days' later they had a hard day in the 

 Thursday country, finding a fox late in the day at 

 Lylands, and running by Marton, Ferrensby, and Loft- 

 house Hill, nearly to Brearton, where hounds were stopped 

 at dark. On December 17th, they had a good thirty-five 

 minutes from Askham Bogs, by Chaloner Whin, the Acomb 

 Nurseries, and Severus Hill, pulling their fox down near 

 Poppleton Lodge. A month later they were at Red 

 House and had a ringing" sort of day, running about 

 Scagglethorpe, Acomb, and Grange Wood all day, and 

 finally the fox crossed the river. But they were to have 

 a better day from Red House than this, of which an 

 account will be found in its place.
