Synopsis
Excerpt from The Quorn Hunt: The Accustomed Places of Meeting, With Distances From Railway Stations
A most amusing and instructive little book, called The Meynellian Science; or, Foxhunting upon System, graphically written by the late Mr John Hawkes, a very celebrated sportsman and companion of Mr Meynell's, affords a vast fund of in formation concerning the customs of those days, and I trust his two sons, my kind friends, Mr John and Mr George Hawkes, will forgive me for availing myself of several extracts.
