The Poonah Hunt, and a numerous party of their
friends, met at day-break, on the morning of the 4•th
of 'March, on the rising ground near the Sangum,
where a jackall of an extraordinary size was turned
down, with good law.. He took across the country
in a northerly direction, and made the River Moota,
a little below the.village of Boperee, the right bank
of which he kept as far as Bopekel, passing Kirkee,
where l e crossed. This part of the chace was very
smart going. On crossing the river he Skirted the
. rnangoe tope to the left of Bopekele, and seemingly
conscious of his, powers, toulc the open country,
stretching tewards the north-east. The dogs were
baffled and at a check for a short time amongst the
dusty roads and some ploughed fields in the neigh.
hourhood.of the tope, and at this critical moment,
were.crossed, about '290 yards in front, by a lat e
herd of deer, but not a single hound swerved, wlkh
evinced a rare degree of discipline and staunchness.
—After some cold hunting across the ploughed
ground, where the dogs showed the true stuf, the
scent began to improve, and they carried it on again
very briskly for about three miles over the plain, in the
direction of the village of Boostie, near which he don-
bled, and made for the strong ground to the eastward.
Be Was viewed here, for the first time, by some of the
horsemen; about three-fourths of a mile a-head, and,
from his rate of going, apparently was not much dis-
tressed. Having now gained the deep nullaha and
strong rocky ground between the villages of Diggie
And Kullis, and being aware of his advantages, he
sheaved a great disposition to keep, his position by fre-
quent doublings ; the dogs, however, began to ap-
proach his brush, and pushed him so hard that he was
compelled to break and make for the hills to the left
of the village of Sangam, near which he was run into
in grand style, afier a run of one hour and five mi-
nutes. The country crossed cannot have been less than
• llteen miles, and the chase altogether was, perhaps,
a smarter and more interesting one than was ever
witnessed in India.
