History of the Meynell Hounds and Country (Classic Reprint) ~ Paperback ~ Unknown Author

Excerpt from History of the Meynell Hounds and Country It has frequently been suggested to the present writer that he should compose a History of the Meynell Hunt, and these volumes are the outcome of that idea. No doubt there are many others far more competent to undertake the work, but time was slipping away, and those who could throw a light on the days that are gone were one by one passing from amongst us; so it was evident that, if the book was ever to be written, it should be done at once. Under these circumstances the author has ventured to try to gather up the threads, and to put together, to the beet of his ability, the records of the Hunt To all those who have helped him in a somewhat arduous task he tenders his most grateful thanks, especially to the Hon. Mrs. Meynell Ingram, the Misses Bott and Miss Lyon, Lord Bagot, Lord Berkeley Paget, Messrs. Bird, Boden, and Bott, Colonel Chandoe-Pole, and Captain Clowes, Messrs. Henry and Hugh Charrington, Captain Holland, Colonel the Hon. W. Coke, Captain Dawson, Mr. Duncombe, Colonel Feilden, Sir Richard FitzHerbert, Bart., Major and the Rev. R: C. FitzHerbert, Messrs. Fort, Lyon, Maynard, Newton, Tomlinson, Tinsley, Okeover, Peacock, Waite, Watts, and Worthington. If the names of any who have helped have been omitted, the writer trusts that they will pardon the omission and accept his thanks.
