KNIGH'ILOW HUNDRED DIVISION. 741

The NORTH HUNT has been established mainly through the exertion of the Right Hon. Lord Leigh, and other noblemen and gentlemen in the vicinity of Leamington. It com­ prises a large pack of hounds, and is supported by subscriptions. The kennels have been erected about 1 mile from Leamington on the Kenilworth road. Another pack of hounds is kept at Atherstone, but the meets do not take place near to Leamington, in consequence of which railway conveniences are made during the season. FISHING and BOATING. Good pike fishing may be had in the River Learn and Avon, and boats may be hired at the Mill, and at the bridge at Emscote. The scenery along the banks of the rivers is very picturesque, and an hour's rowing will well repay the lover of nature. The WARNEFORD HOSPITAL. In 1825 an hospital was founded in Regent-street.

Doctor, be designated by the above title. The foundation stone was laid by the Hon. Charles Bertie Percy, April 10th, 1832. In the cavity of the lower stone, in a box, were deposited three gold, eight silver, and three copper coins, of the reign of William IV., and two elegant medals, presented by the late Mr. Bissett; over the apertmB of which is a brass plate with the following inscription: "This, the first stone of the Leamington Hospital, wae laid by the Hon. Charles Bertie Percy, April 10th, 1832." The building is plea­ santly situate, and of ample size, with every other accommodation requisite for such an institution. In addition to the munificent gift of Dr. and Miss Wameford, already noticed, a further donation of one thousand guineas was added by them in June, 1832, on con- a A
