Inscription on one engraving reads:
'ONE
OF THE RIGHT SORT' Who hunts because he likes
it. "Confound this snow I shall never get a
light; but the worst of it is it will put a stop
to hunting for a few days at least".
Inscription on the other engraving reads:
'ONE
OF THE WRONG SORT' who goes out with hunters
because it is the fashion. "Confound the snow is
not hunting bad enough without this; but there's
one comfort we shall not be able to go out again
for some time".
