Coursed

For example, when a coursed rubble or block-in-course wing-wall or spandril of a bridge has to support an ashlar parapet, a string course must first be placed on the wall, to give a steady base for the parapet, and to distribute its weight over the smaller stones below.

A coursed-ashlar wall is shown in Fig. 1, and a broken-ashlar wall in Fig . 2.

The Thomas Bowman Barn No. 2 is a large two-and-a-half-story structure of wood frame construction built on a coursed stone foundation.

It [St Pinnock Viaduct] has seven piers of roughly-dressed, coursed slatestone from Westwood quarry.

Daniel, in his Rural Sports (vol. i. p. 446, and Suppl. p. 694(, mentions several instances of white hares; and Scott, in his British Field Sports (p. 361), gives an account of a coursed hare which was said to have become white from fright!

By this means it will be found little, if at all, inferior to a coursed or hunted hare.

One point, however, is clear:—if the brush of a coursed fox is to be awareded according to the rules with a hunted fox, "Brush" is the very last man in the field that can claim it; for it appears that when Reynard was killed, "Brush" was coursing a fresh fox in an opposite direction!
