Excerpt from Sketches in the Hunting Field
A few words about the papers themselves. They are for the most part sketches from life with embellish ments; but in only two or three instances do the names given to the characters point in the slightest degree to their real identity. Some of the Sketches are records of more or less eventful days with the hounds. Most of the anecdotes related are matters of fact.
