FOXHUNT THROUGH RECTORY KITCHEN
r PHE Belvoir foxhounds, after findX ing at Leadenham, Lincolnshire, hunted their fox through the village churchyard, through the rectory kitchen while domestic servants fled screaming, and finally killed in the scullery. Hounds had met at Leadenham House, the home of Captain John Sherard Reeve. After crossing the churchyard the fox scrambled over a high ivy-clad wall, and the pack was momentarily checked. Two and a half couples of hounds, however, managed to follow him, with the Rev. William G. Shorten, the rector, and a foot follower running after them.
