Description
Excerpt from Moorland and Stream: With Notes and Prose Idylls on Shooting and Trout Fishing
Very life cannot suppress a whimpering petition for release to join actively in the fun. At the instant there is a rush of pinions, and seven wild duck have put themselves well out of shot before their whereabouts has been distinctly ascertained. And so there is no longer any use in keeping in the dogs, and they com mence to range the soaked and sodden marsh. Bob has only coursed round a single turn when he throws his head aloft, and then marches gravely to a solitary tuft of tall bog-grass, and becomes as fixed as marble before it. Nell from afar off imitates his deportment, and then'' Shaun advances to perform his part, and as he thwacks the grass puss dashes from her retreat, and at thirty yards is stopped with the best part of an ounce and a quarter of No. 8.
