212 HISTORY OF THE BEAM HAM MOOR HUNT. 



'Gayman, vStormer, &c. They found near Prestwold. 

 'Stephen said, "Let them alone; let 'em lose him if they 

 '"will." They had a hunting run of three hours, and 

 'killed him. Sixteen miles from point to point. I mention 

 ' this to show that if about two hundred and fifty of the 

 ' Nimrods of this day would go to the splashing shop 

 ' instead of going a-hunting, they would save themselves 

 'a world of trouble, anxiety, and expense, and would allow 

 'those who reallv love hunting to have a constant and 

 ' uninterrupted fund of enjoyment.' 



Which homily I leave for the careful consideration of 

 culprits and others, in the hope that they will profit thereby.
