Excerpt from Sketches in the Hunting Field
A few words about the papers themselves. They are for the most part sketches from life with embellish ments; but in only two or three instances do the names given to the characters point in the slightest degree to their real identity. Some of the Sketches are records of more or less eventful days with the hounds. Most of the anecdotes related are matters of fact.

Excerpt from Sketches in the Hunting Field
Some of the "Sketches" which follow appear for the first time; others have been altered and amended; but the greater portion of the book consists of reprint, and for the issue of such works critics have taught us that explanations, if not absolute apologies, are required. I proceed therefore to offer my excuses.
For the last year I have been the Editor of the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News, to which periodical, before I accepted the position, several of the "Sketches" had been contributed under the signature "Rapier;" and after I had undertaken the editorship, a pleasant feature of my letter-box consisted of correspondence from kindly readers who expressed a wish to see more of these papers, asked whether they would be issued in book form, and offered friendly suggestions and criticisms.
