Friday, November 3rd. 



Met at Plumley Wood; — finding a brace and half 

 of Foxes, but in a very boisterous and windy day, with 

 heavy rain blowing up from the south-west. Hunted 

 our Fox to the Caundle Holts, and thence by Batcombe 

 Wood across the Stalbridge and Weston Vale to Stal-

Met at Stock Wood, where we found a leash of 

 Foxes, running in Cover an hour, and getting the 

 Hounds away after a Fox that had twenty minutes start 

 of us; walking after him with an execrable scent bv 

 Rooksmoor, and over the river to the Mill at Hazelbury, 

 where we stopped the Hounds, being unable to hunt 

 him any further, on any thing like terms. We then 

 went back and found in the Covers near Stock House,
