Excerpt from A Gamekeeper's Note-Book
The vermin bag has an honourable place in these notes - year by year the keeper may set down precisely how many malefactors (and others) have fallen to his gun and traps. It is a record in which he takes almost as much pride as in his daily and yearly lists of game; the grand total of a good season for game or vermin lingers for ever on his lips. The date of a shoot, the beat, the number and names 'of the guns, and what luck befell them.
