Eecords of the Old Charlton Hunt 



went to ground & in the mean while a fresh fox came up 

 the Hill, through Germin leath, & a long the hills, leaveing 

 all the covers on the right hand till he came to Lewknors 

 Cops's, there wee had a dead fault butt recover'd it again in 

 Muncton Parke, for he was headed back by Workmen, then 

 wee carry 'd the scent as farr as Germin leath, butt could 

 make it out no farther, so Tom Johnson Cast to Treford 

 earth, & round to Lewknors Cops's, & there found Peggy 

 who had run him back by herself, then wee had several 

 rings upon a cold scent that at last wee could make nothing 

 of it, so came home, butt Walcutt & a Tarryer, ran him by 

 themselves to the Warren house at Cocking, where they say 

 he lep't up a top of the house, 6c came down the chimney, 

 & they call'd in the two dogs & catch'd her, & brough her 

 here, a bitch fox with whelp. David went oiF with 13 

 couple of hounds, & had a fine run along the side hills, to 

 Twines, butt there in the dry fallows could make nothing 

 of it.
