notice will be dealt with according to law
To well disposed persons mere suggestion as
regards hunting would seemto be sufficient, SINCE,
it is well known that the occupants Of those
grounds are for the most part persons, who can
not hear, and cannot see, whose freedom on the
grounds is Of course largely curtailed by those
