292 Hunting Countries of England. 



Barton has a wood, and witli this we have gone 

 through the country — which, were it not so well 

 preserved, would scarcely afford room for even two 

 days a week. In conclusion, you want a respectable 

 hunter to follow Lord Ferrer's hounds. He need be 

 only half as good as if for the best part of the adjoining 

 Hunt. But he onust be able to jump fairly ; and he 

 ought to be able to gallop when called upon. Yet 

 you need not spend a heavy sum in order to acquire 

 fashion.
