Farm. They hunted him well, and at times 

 ran hard, but were not able to kill, and, the 

 day waning, it was now time to go home, and 

 a bitter cold ride back we had. 



February 24th. — 



Was an extremely cold morning, and the 

 meet at Redlynch Gate was not large. A fox was 

 found in Moor Wood, who, after a short turn 

 round the cover, went away into Cogley, and 

 out of that cover pointing for Brewham, but, 

 being headed by a ploughman, he turned left- 

 handed, and went straight to Hick's Park, in 

 twenty-nine minutes. They had got away so 

 sharply that hardly any one was fairly with them, 

 but we got up at this check ; from here we had 

 some very good slow hunting over a beautiful 

 country back to Cogley, whence a fresh fox 

 took us a ring out by the Bull at Hardway, 

 but we could not account for him. Redlynch 

 Gorse was our next draw, and from it we ran 

 towards Wincanton and over the railway to 

 Stony Stoke, and to Park Wood, but could do 

 no more good.
