Not Quite Correct
A HUNTSMAN, reported to have lived with Mr. Beckford, was not so correct
in his conversation as he was in his professional employments. One day
when he had been out with the young hounds, Mr. B. sent for him, and
asked what sport he had had, and how the hounds behaved. Very great
sport, sir, and no hounds could behave better.--Did you run him
long?--They run him up-wards of five hours successfully.--So then
you did kill him?--O no, sir; we lost him at last.
