Excerpt from Hog Hunting in the East, and Other Sports Some exception was taken to the introduction of fictitious, in place of real, names of places described by me in a former book of sport. Fully admitting the justice of the criticism on behalf of those who really care to localise the scenes of the adventures related, I have, in the following pages, specified by name the spot where each occurred. They are - with the few exceptions referred to in the Appendix, and marked in the text by a double asterisk - scenes and incidents where I was myself present, or in which I was personally engaged as an actor, either principal or subsidiary. Each anecdote is, in outline, actually true. I have but filled in the bare skeleton of my journals, and, in some instances, endeavoured to account for the proceedings of others engaged, whilst relating the part taken by myself in each affair.
