Testimonial presented to Mr. Davis of Her Majesty's Staghounds, 1858. Creator: Unknown

Testimonial presented to Mr. Davis of Her Majesty's Staghounds, 1858. The testimonial was modelled by Mr. Cotterill. It is mounted on an ebony plinth, with the following inscription on one side, engraved on a silver plate: "Presented to Mr. Charles Davis, huntsman of her Majesty's staghounds, as a mark of esteem of his high qualifications as a sportsman, his gentlemanly bearing in the hunting-field, and his long and efficient services. August, 1858." On the other side are engraved the names of the noblemen and gentlemen who formed the committee...[After the presentation], Mr. Davis proposed the health of the farmers, and paid a high compliment to them, adding that without their aid there would be no hunting; that he knew every farmer within a radius of twenty miles, and that he had always been well and kindly received by all; and was delighted to see the prosperity of the land demonstrated by the success of the farmers'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858
