Excerpt from Seventy Years a Master: A Huntsman's Reminiscences
What a charming picture - the Old man, shortly entering upon his ninety-third year, as fond as ever of the pack which has given him so many happy days. Just fancy - eighty-odd years with the bounds, and keen to the last 1 It is difficult to realise that we still have with us a sportsman who saw Mr. C. Barnett, the famous Master Of the Cambridgeshire, find his first cub in the first year Of his long Mastership, namely 1829. Yet Mr. Race is that man, and he still loves to recall the many good runs he saw with Mr. Barnett and his hounds. As well as having seen him find his first fox, he saw him kill his last in his final season, thirty-eight years later.
