Eecords of the Old Charlton Hunt 



Wednesday : Nov^ 24^^. 



All the same horses as were out the day before. 



Found in Charlton Forrest, & the hounds ran very hard 

 for upwards of seven hours, most part of it in Charlton 

 Forrest & Eastdean wood ; where they ran severall rings, 

 quite round both covers several times, & once carry 'd the 

 scent up almost to the upper Teglees, butt then brought it 

 back again to Eastdean Wood, & the Forrest, where all the 

 horses knock'd up, & the day growing very bad, were forced 

 to take off 'tho by farr the greatest number of the hounds 

 were quite fresh. 



Wednesday: Dec'. 22^. 



The Hounds hitt upon a drag at the bottom of Rooks 

 hill, & carry'd it through old warren to Preston Corner, butt 

 it growing worse & worse, wee found that they took it the 

 wrong way, so as it was back to Eastdean Parke, & a very 

 fine morning, wee went on to Ashling woods & there found 

 a fox that went over between down Farm & Adsden, up 

 juniper bottom & the black bushes, & the whole length of 

 Bow hill, butt above Chilgrove a fresh fox started up out of
