184 IRISH SPORT AND SPORTSMEN. 



Mr. Bolton kept the hounds till his death, in 

 1853. His son, celebrated in the annals of short- 

 horn breeding in Ireland, not being able to devote as 

 much time as he considered necessary to hunt the 

 country, gave the pack and country, conditionally, to 

 the Earl of Fitzwilliam, who induced Mr. Watson 

 to take them ; he has ever since hunted the district. 

 Mr. Bolton is a very liberal supporter of the Wexford 

 Hounds.
