part of the contest, swerved and knocked 

 down Lord Justice Lopes, who was watching 

 the race ; whilst Mr. Croxall, riding Pepper, 

 was also brousjht down in the melee. A 

 splendid race home, between four, resulted, 

 as I have said, in the victory of Corunna — 

 bought by Mr. Lyttleton for sixty guineas, 

 and entirely made into a jumper by him — 

 Mr. Butcher, M.P., being second on Fingall, 

 whilst Messrs. Cope and Terrell made a dead 

 heat of it for third place. 



Turn we now from law and the lawyers 

 to the greatest and best of all cross-country 

 work, the huntinu' of the fox.
