Excerpt from The Master of the Hounds, Vol. 1 of 3 My dear Lord, By the following Tale, in which the characters are depicted from real life, I have endeavoured to show that Foxhunters are not men of one idea only, or of one pursuit; and that Masters of Foxhounds do not, as they have been grossly misrepresented, live for Foxhunting alone.

Excerpt from The Master of the Hounds, Vol. 3 of 3 I think not, was the reply. His opinion on that point is pretty generally known, although he was sitting with her the whole of the opera in Lady Malcolm's box the other night. Well, I am surprised at his want of taste -what can he see to admire in a bashful, country-looking girl, without the semblance of fashion about her.

Excerpt from The Master of the Hounds It was on the morning of the 1st of November, 18 - (the fox-hunter's opening day for the season), that a gay party of sportsmen, in their bright scarlet costume, were gathered round the breakfast table of Mr. Beauchamp, of Bampton House, a gentleman of high descent, and large landed property, in one of the midland counties. Bampton House being of large dimensions, many friends were invited the previous evening to dine and sleep there, in readiness for the ensuing gala day; accordingly, about half-past nine on that auspicious morning (for so it proved, although not exactly with "a southerly wind and a cloudy sky"), a goodly assemblage of choice and daring spirits thronged the hospitable board of Mr. Beauchamp, all eager to dispatch their morning meal, and prepare themselves for the coming fray. On the sideboard, besides the usual dishes on such occasions, of ham, beef, cold fowls, game, &c., divers bottles of cherry brandy, Curascoa, and Maraschino, stood invitingly displayed. Of this goodly company, whilst so engaged, we may take this opportunity of noticing a few of the most distinguished characters; and first of all, as standing by fox-hunting etiquette at the head of his brothers in pink, the Master of the Hounds, William Beauchamp, now in his twenty-fourth year (living with his father), to whom the management of the pack was now entrusted. He was tall in stature, though rather slightly formed, yet of great activity and strength, and a fearless though careful rider.

Excerpt from The Master of Hounds: Illustrated From Photographs This, the third volume of The Hunting Library, deals with a subject at once more simple and more complex than that covered by its predecessors; more simple because its scope is determined by a review of the personality, the duties and the difficulties of a single official more complex because, if we are to contemplate any approach to a proper estimate of all that the Master of Hounds means in the social and sporting world, it is necessary to consider hls privileges and obli gations not merely from his own standpoint, but also from those of his followers, farmers or otherwise, and his servants. To a complete under standing of his merits, indeed, a word from the hounds would be essential, but short of that it is hoped that something has been accomplished in the following pages to show the Master as he sees himself and also as others see him.
