Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from With Hound and Terrier in the Field: Hunting Reminiscences
At the time when he was hunting in Dorset, some Of the keenest men with hounds were clergy men, and very remarkable characters they were.
The Rev. Harry Farr Yeatman, of Stock House, owned a pack of hounds with which he hunted fox, hare, and roe-deer in the Stock coverts and parts Of Somersetshire. These hounds were dwarf fox hounds, and only stood twenty or twenty one inches, but they had been drawn from all the best kennels in England by Mr George Templar Of Devonshire, from whose possession they passed to that of Mr Yeatman in the year 1826. The roe deer which this pack Often hunted were brought into the country by Lord Dorchester, and from that time to the present they have lived in the woods and hills Of the wilder districts.
