Within the Home Purchase Donepezil Online Counties may be reckoned the Vale of Aylesbury, where the fine pack of the Roths- child family have for about sixty years given much pleasure to those who follow the hounds. Popular as is the hunt now, it will hardly be believed that when Baron Rothschild first resolved to keep staghounds, he encoun- tered a considerable amount of opposition, not only at the in- stance of the farmers, but of the landowners as well. Gradually, however, it became known what a good . sportsman the Baron was and what capital fun it was riding **at" Purchase Donepezil staghounds, as Why te- Melville prefers to phrase it. Gradually, therefore, the pen- dulum swung the other way, and 284 BAILY S MAGAZINE. [October he would be a bold man who would propose the disestablish- ment of Lord Rothschild's Hounds. The stables, too, are a sight, for the lover of good horses, and per- haps no men in England are mounted better than the staff of the Staghounds. Passing away from the Home Circuit where hunting the carted deer chiefly flourishes, it may per- haps surprise some people to learn that deer were hunted in Dorsetshire long before a late Lord Wolverton started his black St. Hubert bloodhounds. In the hands of those who knew how to manage them they showed some capital runs, but when a portion of them passed into other hands, and were treated jiist as if they had been foxhounds, their shy- ness and fear made them of no use for hunting purposes. To Lord Wolverton 's mind the quiet which necessarily reigned in his field added considerably to the enjoyment, and great was the regret expressed in the neighbour- hood when the pack was dispersed. Lord Carrington tried blood- hounds to hunt deer on the cold scenting hills about High Wy- combe, in Bucks ; but the Donepezil Online experi- ment was not a success, for bloodhounds require very gentle treatment in the field, and will not stand the whip nor being shouted at. The other pack hunt- ing in Dorsetshire was that be- longing to Mr. Sturt, whose hounds were in existence at the latter part of the last century. He lived at Crichel, still Order Donepezil Online the family seat of Lord Alington. The Mr. Sturt of the day, however, besides hunting a good deal with otter-hounds, generally had his own out twice a week, and among other good runs which came off from time to time was one which lasted for three hours. The deer took a course right through the heart of the Isle of Purbeck, and took to the sea. A rather rough sea was running at the time, but Mr. Sturt's brother swam out with a rope and succeeded in bringing the quarry ashore ; but the deer from these paddocks were rather given to sea trips, and it is on record that six times running was the deer brought Order Donepezil back by boatmen. As a rule, it will be found that staghunting is most in favour where foxhunting is not of the most brilliant character, as, for example, in Kent, Surrey and Sussex, and this may possibly be Buy Donepezil the reason why staghunting — at least, in Generic Donepezil the carted deer form — has not been very much culti- vated in Yorkshire, where, of course, there are plenty of oppor- tunities to hunt the fox. Never- Buy Donepezil Online theless, not a few Yorkshire sportsmen by no means disdained to follow the hounds owned by Sir Clifford Constable, though they were afterwards turned into harriers, while Buy Cheap Donepezil at Easingwold, under the mastership of Mr. Batty, there was also an establishment for hunting the deer. They, how- ever, had plenty of fun, and some of the hard- riding Yorkshiremen really thought more of it than they cared to acknowledge. Cheshire, too, that county of grass, had its staghounds when Lord Westminster kept them in the last century, as is shown by Stubbs*s picture and other records, while later on Mr. Shakerley kept a pack for some time. One is so accustomed to asso- ciate the name of Lord Darling- ton, afterwards in succession the Marquis and Duke of Cleveland, with foxhunting of the highest type that one can hardly bring oneself to imagine that stag- hounds were ever kept in the Raby kennels ; yet so it was, though not in the time of the first 1900.] STAGHUNTING HISTORY. 285 marquis. There have been cir- cumstances in which masters of hounds, who were once famed for their keenness for the sport, have taken a dislike to it in their later years. This was the case with the late Mr. Thomas DufEeld, sometime master of the Old Berks hounds. Soon after resigning the country he abandoned the thrust- ing style of riding which once characterised him and used to go about on a cob ; but this was only the first stage towards taking a dislike to seeing hounds on his land. In Lord Darlington's case, however, the original dislike to hunting seems to have arisen from a dislike to his son, and when he drew near the end of his life he grubbed up, and otherwise destroyed, all the best coverts in the country, so that when the second duke came into the family estates he found himself with a miserable pack of hounds, and with scarcely a covert to hold a fox. In this situation he did the best thing he could under the circumstances and started a pack of staghounds, an innovation which is said to have almost shocked the orthodox foxhunters of the district. Necessity, however, has no law, and before many weeks had passed the duke's stag- hounds were very well attended, and when the coverts were grown up the stag was forsaken for the fox ; but the hunt never regained its former proud position. In the Eastern Counties hunting the carted deer has, in one way and another, had a rather long life, not unaccompanied with merriness. Of Mr. Neave's Essex pack mention has already been made, and they were sometimes taken into Norfolk and Suffolk ; but in the "thirties" Sir Jacob Astley, who subsequently revived one of the three Hastings peerages, determined to have some sort of hunting ready to
