ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1884). 1884 1st edition. 12mo (110 x 175mm). Pp75 + 4pp publisher's catalogue. Not illustrated. Binding B. Red-brown cloth, upper board titled in gilt with single blind-ruled border, spine untitled, yellow coated end-papers. Cloth stained, inner hinges tender but a good copy. A concise guide, written in plain English, to the game laws and the powers of gamekeepers. "The constant difficulties in which gamekeepers are involved, and in which they involve their masters, seem to me sufficient justification for a work which should be clear in its language, and capable of being understood by persons who have not the opportunity of consulting legal textbooks, and who cannot be expected to do so. This little book is, then, designed in no way to compete with those treatises on the Game Laws, which we already possess. My aim is merely to put into the hands of those employed in the preservation of game a short and untechnical statement of their powers against those who may break the laws relating to game, and trespass in pursuit of it. If, haply, I shall also instruct some poachers of the pains and penalties they may incur, I shall perhaps have found another reason for writing these pages." Contents include:- Preface; Definitions; Game, gun, and dog licenses; Close time; Poaching; Trespass; Apprehension of offenders; Game, dogs, guns, nets, etc., found on or used by trespassers - poison; The Ground Game Act (43, 44 Vic C. 47); Witnesses; Appeal; Fishing. There is believed to be an earlier edition, published by Davis in 1879, but I have not seen it. .…

She is sending 'some autographs which Mother gave me' (not present), and has 'put whoose [sic] they are on their backs in pencil'. She has 'no time to write now' as she is 'going out riding'. Letter Two: She thanks her for sending 'Judge Hugh's autograph', and will 'send you my autographs I get duplicates of, at present nobody has given me any, but there is an old man staying with us who knows all sorts of "autograph folk"'. Her family have been staying at a hotel in Portrush, where 'the people were superbly ugly & vulgar'. She has drawn a caricature of the children's French teacher 'Tottie', declaring that she is 'Ignorante! Sybille'. 'Tottie isn't nearly so savage as I thought she is really rather a nice old thing. But she is very funny. She calls me "petite" Duay "le petit" and Angus "le plus petit", we are all considerably larger than her (she), (I don't know which is right grammer so I give you them both to choose from. How are you and Ingall (is that the way to spell it) getting on is she as obnoxious as ever? Tottie & the boys fight all day, Angus sheds buckets over his french verbs, she is quite in despair over my french'.
