A hundred and twenty-nine head in all, on
unpreserved ground, and in very wild walking. It is to be feared it will
never be done any more in the vale of Warwick. For this, alas! was ten
years ago.
When they reached Tom's it was decided that they should all return home
on the morrow; that Harry should attend to the procuring his purchase
money; and Tom to the cheapening of the purchase.
In addition to this, the old boy swore, by all his patron saints, that
he would come down in spring, and have a touch at the snipe he had heerd
Archer tell on at Pine Brook.
A capital supper followed; and of course lots of good liquor, and the
toast, to which the last cup was quaffed, was LONG LIFE TO HARRY ARCHER,
AND LUCK TO HIS SHOOTING BOX, to which Frank Forester added: "I wish he
may get it."
And so that party ended; all of its members hoping to enjoy many more
like it, and that very speedily.
