On Long Island a hundred and more
years ago there was fox hunting for
three days during the season, and the
biography of Catherine Schuyler CON
talns the following apt lines from the
pen of witty woman whose name re-
mains unknown:
A fox is killed by twenty men,
That fox perhaps had killed a hen
A gallant act no doubt is here
All wicked foxes ought to fear
When twenty dogs and twenty men
Can kill fox that killed a hen.
