TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE THE EARL OF SANDWICH, MASTER OF HIS MAJESTY's STAG HOUNDS .
My Lord,
To have had the inexpressible Happiness of partaking with your Lordship the Pleasures of the Chase during the Whole of that Period; to have witnessed your Lordship's humane, polite, and condescending Attention to various Individuals, upon the most distressing Emergencies; to have been repeatedly honoured by your Lordship's public Patronage and private Favor; are Gratifications of so much Magnitude to the Ambition of a Sportsman, that it is impossible to resist the Temptation of dedicating to your Lordship, a Work solely appertaining to the Sports of the Field; and of publicly soliciting Permission to continue,
With the most unsullied Respect and Gratitude,
William Taplin
