'On my return Home late yesterday Evening I found that Mr. O'Kelly had been waiting for some hours to consult with me relative to your letter to him of the 25th inst. . I understand from Mr O'Kelly that 25 Copies of the Papers alluded to were privately printed about 15 only of which were circulated for the use of our Committee & Members of the Hunt to save the Secretary time & trouble in going into an explanation with the several parties interested in the settlement of thte question. I have Mr. O'Kelly's assurance that in adopting this course he never meant any personal offence to Coll. Keppel .'.

Keppel was himself the largest contributor to our Lymington Harriers he was kept profoundly ignorant of the whole transaction of printing' . to use Coll. Keppel's words to Mr O'Kelly in his note to him of the 22d I care not what mere publicity has been given to that part of the transaction but it is the printing and publishing of a private correspondence coupled with objectionable remarks for which I still demand redress.' LETTER 6: Gould to Berkeley 29 November 1842 Muddiford near Christchurch. '. I am decidedly of your opinion that the Copies ought to be withdrawn from those persons . not being connected with the Lymington Hunt .'.
