Similarly there was a day in a distant shooting field when an unremembered squire discovered, by who knows what accident, that to shoot a game bird as it was driven towards him was a more sporting challenge that to walk it up and drop it as it blundered up from the bracken. Hitherto the eighteenth-ce.
