Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from England´s Oldest Hunt: Being Chapters of the History of the Bilsdale, Farndale and Sinnington Hunts, Collected During Several Years It is not my intention to keep my readers long at covert side, but a few words are necessary regarding my fox, ere he break away on his two or three hundred page journey. He has taken a great deal of finding, having led me into all parts of Yorkshire, and amongst all sections of the Sporting community, who have most readily and kindly helped me to work out the line. Scent throughout has been most catchy, and I have frequently had to make casts and lift hounds in the unravelling of the story, so many chapters of which time has obliterated. I have written hundreds of letters regarding these portions of the run, and the replies have often been quite as bewildering to the author as information often is to the man with the horn, when his hunted fox has been viewed travelling South and North at one and the same time. In such cases, I have adopted the only course open and used my own judgment. The hunt has extended over many years, and from week to week during the hunting season records of it have appeared in "The Yorkshire Weekly Post," in which journal most of the matter contained in this volume has appeared, and to the Editor of which my thanks are due. The remainder has been included in articles contributed by the author to "The Crown," "Sporting and Dramatic News," "The Field," "Sporting Chronicle," "Newcastle Chronicle," "Baily´s Magazine," and other sporting journals, to which the author contributes, and to the Editors of which he also tenders his thanks for permission to republish, and for the loan of some of the illustrations which adorn the pages.
