of England at 500 per headWhat a noble man he was I One of

natures own true noblemen So nobleso gallant so generous so true Andyet as devoted as this generous manwas to the chase he leaves quite an estato to his devoted wife and affection ¬

ate children who will perhaps neverlook upon his life again The late ColT P Hill was a devotee to the chaseas well as to Sir William BlackstoneYou can judge the heart of a man bythe dogs of his yard A fierce bull dogmeans keep out of my yard If you aresaluted on your entrance by the musicof the pack go in at once the occu¬

pant may not always have much butyou and your horse are welcome as longas it lasts A few days before thegreat and good man left the scenes ofearth through whose grand forests andrugged dells he had so often followedthe hounds he had his chair movedouton the veranda and releasing a captur¬

ed fox in the presence of the eagerdogs away they flew and the distantdying echoes of the pack mingled withthe echoes of his dying breath

And I want to say right here that nomusical instrument that has ever beeninvented no piano no violin no organwith its deep and solemn tones no dul¬

cimer no banjo no calliope no ccollanharp no French harp no jewsharpcan equal the music of a pack of hourdsin full cry with a breasthigh scentwaking up the wild sleeping echoes ofthe lonely dells

A noble hound once saved the life ofmy cousin by marriage Levi Hubblewho was fast in a fox den and the digwent to his home and communicatedthe fact to his family

Fast on the hounds the hunter campTo cheer them on the vanished gameBut stumbling in the rugged dellThe gallant horse exhausted fellThe impatient rider strove in vainTo rouse him with the spur and reinFor the good steed his labors oerStretched his stiff limbs to rise no morebThen struck with pity and remorse rHe sorrowed oer the expiring horseI little thought when first thy rein

I slacked upon the banks of SeineThat Highland eagle eer should feedUpon thy fleet limbs my matchless

steedWoe wath the chase woe wath the dayThat cost thy life my gallant gray

But I and my gallant companions ofthe chase must now bid a sad adieu toour departed friend
