PUNT CARRIAGES, WAGONS, AND HOUSES 223 
we strongly advise them to include one in their kit, as it will 
undoubtedly prove of invaluable service whenever it is brought 
into use. 
We do not recommend a wagon without springs. The 
roads in the neighbourhood of good fowling grounds, and 
especially in winter, are often very bad. Travelling the punt 
on a springless wagon over such roads means bumping and 
shaking, which naturally do no good to the punt.

Punt Wagon 
Our sketch of the subject is as simple as we can make it in 
keeping with the necessary requirements of a punt-wagon. 
Really, it is nothing more than a long, flat-topped vehicle on 
four wheels and springs. The front pair of wheels turn simi- 
larly to those on an ordinary rully. Reference to our sketch 
(which is one of a wagon made to take a large punt and all 
gear) should furnish some idea of what the wagon is like. We 
cannot say what price would be charged for such a wagon. 
The one from which our sketch is made, when new, cost 415.
