CONCLUSION, 



4-'i5 



to the proceedings, whicli an unfortunate little incident served 

 to intensify. A luckless vixen was suddenly chopped in 

 Burton Long "Wood; and Gillard's search soon brought to 

 light eight tiny cubs from the brushwood hard bv. The little 

 black beasties — more like rough-coated moles than foxes — were 

 still unable to see. Two were carried home by a Inember of 

 the field, to be placed under the fostering care of his cat, and 

 to be brought up as members of his flock ; while the others 

 •Nvere consigned to the keeper, to seek a nurse for them. 



THE END.
