[235] I have little space in this number to resume the question of the quantity of the different sorts of game killed, about which I have had many letters, including a particularly interesting Game-book from one of those small manors to which I have made reference. The owner occasionally, but not always, has kept account of every cartridge he used and the result ; - On the first page of this book is the famous record of the game killed by Lord de Grey from 1867 to 1895, and this is worth reproducing in case the reader has not come across it. It begins with 2 rhinoceros, 11 tiger, 12 buffalo, 19 sambur, 97 pig, 186 deer and 381 red deer.
