EXCLUSION OF THE PUBLIC FROM THE LAND.
[To TEE EDITOR OP TER "SPECTATOR."]
SIR,—May I suggest to " Civis," who appeals to landowners "not to be too rigorous in excluding the humble and harmless pedestrian from their fields, woods, and hills," that he should give North Wales a trial ? I have been constantly on the mountains without interference. On Saturday week I walked over both Carnedds, from Ogwen Lake to Aber, a distance of twelve miles. This is one of the most glorious walks in the British Isles, and wholly, I believe, on Lord Penrhyn's pro- perty; and I should wish to express to him through the Spectator the gratitude we all feel at the liberty he gives us. From Ogwen, Capel Curig, or Penypass you may climb the mountains in any direction quite unrestricted.—I am, Sir,
F. COPLESTONE.
