Water Head, leaving Blackbarrow to the right, to the Forest Wall on 1865. 

 Chalk Water, up the combe between the wall and Oare Common, 

 and out over the latter to Badgworthy by the lower Deer Park Gate ; 

 down the water to, the wood, broke from it about two-thirds of the 

 way down, and up through the wood, over Brendon Common. On 

 about half-way to the Simonsbath road, then to the right to Scobhill, 

 over it and down by Brendon and through Brendon Wood to Broad- 

 wayfoot. Here a long check. Cast down to Watersmeet, then back 

 to Broadwayfoot, then up along the head of the covers on the 

 Countisbury side ; at last came a holloa at Ilford Bridges, where hit 

 the line back into the Brendon covers, and across the Ilford Bridges 

 stream over the hill (Wattlebury) opposite. They set him up going 

 round the cliff to Lynmouth, but he went on the side of the cliff

 down the water for ten minutes or so, and took him at 5.45, two 

 hours and forty minutes from the lay on. A fine run and a good 

 stag. B. B. T. 2 on both sides.

 Sweetworthy half an hour previously, and the pack was laid on, in 

 direct contradiction to the master's order. Ran to Alderman's 

 Barrow, Blackbarrow, and Badgworthy, to Malsmead and over the 

 hill to Glenthorne, where he was killed on the beach — a three-year old. 



October T,rd, Cloutsham. — Found two stags in Stoke Wood at 

 1 1.40. The best of them went over the hill to Luccombe Plantation, 

 and away. Laid on at 12.40; ran round by Hannacombe and Bin- 

 combe to water under Blagdon Wood and down the bottom. Here 

 some delay, owing to three fresh deer, but a holloa brought hounds to
