Local Hunting Notes: The Warwickshire

These hounds met at Hanwell on Friday in showery weather. They found several foxes in the gorse, and hunted one by Mr A. Tustain’s buildings to the Horley Road, and then turned rightward along the strongly fenced vale to Page’s Gorse. They hunted him round the covert, and he went away along the top of the Warmington Bank, and circled back to the gorse, whereabouts scent fizzled out after a nice hunt of about forty minutes. Horley Vineyards held the next, but he only ran a short, sharp ring when he managed to throw off the pack. There were any quantity of foxes in Ragnall Gorse, and hounds finally got one away, and ran him a sharp ring before being beaten. This concluded the day’s sport, which will be much curtailed, as the hunting staff have only one horse out.
