HISTORY OF THE BRAMHAM MOOR HUNT 



his grandsire Warlock, who was a son of his. Spokesman 

 was a rare-bred one on both sides. His sire was Lord 

 Galway's Spokesman, by Bramham Smoker — Ransom, by 

 Lord Coventry's Rambler, and his dam was Dangerous, by 

 Sailor — Delicate, by the Grove Saracen, a son of the
