DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Hunting Recollections In giving my Hunting Recollections, I must beg for the kind indulgence of my readers, and remind them this is my first literary venture - and a very difficult fence I have found it to negotiate. When starting, I intended to give a few hunting anecdotes only, but instead of "a sharp, short burst," I find I have dropped into a regular, long, slow hunting run with several checks, and if my readers, after getting to the close of this book, care to continue the run, I propose to get on the line as soon as possible; and in our next we shall arrive nearer to the present time. Before closing the Introduction, I must tell my friends to what the proceeds of the book will be devoted. Some five or six years ago I was instrumental in starting a Home for persons who, for some cause, find it impossible to obtain work; and, after remaining in the Home for a certain time, and proving themselves entitled to a recommendation, situations are obtained for them. As far as the people are concerned, the result has more than met our expectations; and, though the inmates of the Home are employed in laundry work, for various reasons we can never hope to make it self-supporting. Any benefit derived from "Hunting Recollections" will go to reduce the debt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
