A WEEK AT MELTON 63 



merit of hunting is that it makes the time pass so 

 quickly, that if it were not for the pause of Sunday 

 we should scarcely know we were at Melton ere it 

 is time to throw up the hunters and return to town. 



In the foregoing chapter I am conscious that I 

 have but touched on the surface of my subject, but 

 no one can say everything on any matter; and at 

 least, as the reader comes to the end, he will know 

 that Melton has become the most fashionable resort, 

 because it is on the whole the best hunting centre in 

 England.
