Mr Thomas Veale Lane 1845-1851
Captain Haworth was succeeded in the Mastership by Mr. Thomas Veal Lane who built the Kennel at Oakland's farm
near Chudleigh. He hunted the hounds himself, and had Churchward for his Whipper-in. Mr. Lane was a fine horseman
and huntsman, quick and quiet. An extremely able steeplechaser he was seen in the huntfleld well into his eighties and
described as fit "neat and spare, as that of a young man".
When the famine stopped hunting in Ireland for a time the celebrated Lord Waterford brought his crack hunters down to
the South Devon with the idea that he would show the natives how to ride over his own country. Lord Waterford was
undeniably good, but he found his match and could not beat Mr. Lane. Throughout his Mastership the pack retained the
official name of the Devon Foxhounds, but it first began to be popularly known as the South Devon during his term of
office. Mr. Lane kept no hunting journal, so records of the South Devon are the megre during this period with references
only available ITom the local press. Mr. Lane gave up the pack at the end of the season 1848-9. His eye for a horse
appears to have descended to his grandson, Sir Henry Hoare, Bart. who was often seen judging in the show ring.
