§ Mr. KELLAWAYI have the honour to present a petition signed by 300 farmers in all parts of the country, including some of the very largest utility poultry men and many representative fanciers. The prayer is "That the humble petition of the under-sighed poultry keepers in England respectfully showeth that whereas the poultry keepers of England suffer very heavy loss from the depredations of foxes, and receive no adequate compensation, we, the undersigned, urgently beg that your honourable House will without delay pass into law a measure for the confining of foxes within their coverts."
