The Kilkenny Hunt Opening Meet 2016/17

The Kilkenny Hunt Opening Meet 2016/17 A video by C. K. Lynch of The Kilruddery Hunt. Founded by Sir John Power 1st Baronet in the year 1797. Kilkenny! Kilkenny’s the land of the chase, Where men, hounds, and horses all go the best pace; The season is o’er, but we must not forget The good sport we have had, the good fellows we’ve met. How oft have we stood by the wild bit of gorse, Expectation alive in each man and each horse - They’ve found, they’re hard at him, he cannot delay! Johnny doubles his horn, they’re away, they’re away!!
