1866. Deer Park, then down into the bottom and along the head of Upton 

 Wood to water under Downe's Lodge. Here went right away over 

 Haddon End to Bittescombe Wood, through the pond and up over 

 the hill to Heydown and Middle Hill, and down to water under 

 Maundown ; up the bottom to Washbottle Mill, and back up through 

 the cover towards Heydown, along the side of Huish Cleeve, short 

 to the left (the fog again very thick), and fresh found in the hedge 

 trough at the head of Middle Hill; to the left straight for BuUand 

 Lodge, and down into the bottom towards Waterow. Here he was 

 viewed in the water apparently beat, but he had other thoughts in

 Stawley Mills, jumping the leat five minutes before the hounds. 

 Leaving the water he turned up towards Stawley village, and on in 

 the direction of Apley, going to water just short of it and beating

 led away by false information that he had been viewed into a small 

 cover, and when the mistake was found out it was too late to do 

 more. A very fast run throughout, but the pace from the fresh find 

 on Middle Hill to Trace Bridge was tremendous. 



October ^th, Dunkery Hill Gate. — Found in Bincombe at 1.23. 

 He went down the bottom, through Blagdon Wood and over the hill 

 towards Quarme. Laid on above Blagdon at 1.58. Away over Hill 

 Quarme and down the valley to Lower Quarme; here short to the 

 left as if for Lype and Luxborough, but back again and down the 

 valley on the Winsford side to Quarme Bridge, and on through Wick 

 and HoUam Woods to Red Cleeve, down the small water under
