Well clean the animal inside; drain the blood, and wipe it out with a damp cloth. Put it in a packing case, and cover the whole body with a thick layer of oats well pressed down. Fasten it down so as to exclude the air, and it will keep for three weeks.

Birds may be preserved for a fortnight in the same way.

Take care to keep out the air, and keep the case in a shady place or on the north side of a wall.

Another Mode

Partly sink a wine-cask in the ground, fasten sticks across the top and hang the game down inside it. Cover the top of the cask so as to quite exclude the outer air. Of course the game must be first cleaned out and well dried as above.
