If he did, let him have the earths stopped.

But when that great question came up as to the Gartlow coverts--when that uncommonly disagreeable gentleman, Mr.Smith, of Gartlow, gave notice that the hounds should not be admitted into his place at all,--Lord Chiltern soon put the whole matter straight by taking part with the disagreeable gentleman.

The disagreeable gentleman had been ill used.

Men had ridden among his young laurels.

If gentlemen who did hunt,--so said Lord Chiltern to his own supporters,--did not know how to conduct themselves in a matter of hunting, how was it to be expected that a gentleman who did not hunt should do so?
On this occasion Lord Chiltern rated his own hunt so roundly that Mr.Smith and he were quite in a bond together, and the Gartlow coverts were re-opened.
