FOOTNOTES
[1] As a matter of fact this is incorrect. The actual number of subscribers in 1859 was 58.
[2] Purchased at end of season by W. Milner (the late Sir W. Milner).
[3] How interesting to hear of troubles with farmers nearly sixty years ago! The author can definitely state that to-day (season 1921-22) only one field is forbidden to the E.C.H.
[4] Eton College Chronicle.
[5] Mistake for Hon. G. Heathcote-Drummond-Willoughby. Lord C. Cavendish-Bentinck was first whip next year (1887).
[6] Notable exceptions were G. W. Barclay (killed in the War), son of Mr. E. E. Barclay, M.F.H. the Puckeridge, and K. S. M. Gladstone, who had had a pack of his own in Essex before he went to Eton. These two Masters of the E.C.H. undoubtedly did a very great deal to bring the pack to a high standard.
[7] To-day the season begins, subject to the Head Master’s permission, on Oct. 15th.
[8] The late Mr. F. H. Rawlins.
[9] Trinity Foot Beagles.
[10] Since Barnett-Barker’s days the subscription has been lowered to £1 10s.
[11] Perhaps this is a fitting place to mention that Bambridge & Co. by Windsor Bridge set up both masks and pads extremely well.
[12] The record.
