Master of the Hunt Mark Shotton has vowed that the sport would go on, but that the dogs would no longer chase foxes. They will chase false scent trails. The Interna- tional Fund for Animal Welfare has wel- comed this attitude to the ban. A spokes- woman said “There is no ban on riding and using false trails is a good alternative.” 2 ‘BREAK A LEG!’ But the show must go on..

At a Meeting of the SURTBBS SOCIETY, held in Durham Castle on Tuesday, December 3rd, 1901, the DEAN OP DURHAM in the chair, It was resolved, That a volume of North Country Wills from the Registers at Somerset House be edited for the Society by Mr. J. W. CLAY, F.S.A. WILLIAM BKOWN, Secretary. PKEFACE. THE SUETEES SOCIETY has printed a good many volumes of abstracts of Wills, more or less full, from the registries at York, Durham, and Richmond, which its members seem to have appreciated. There are, however, many wills of Northern persons proved in the Prerogative Court of Canter- bury, which are now at Somerset House, and a few in the Library at Lambeth Palace. These till lately have not been thoroughly examined, probably on account of the great labour in looking through so many manuscript calendars. " Some few were printed by Canon Raine in Testa- menta Eboracensia,"* and some short abstracts are " in .Nicolas' Testamenta Vetusta," a book which came out as long since as 1826, but which is now scarce.
