Ian will be forever remembered as one of the great Master of Hounds. For an impressive 34 years, he held this esteemed position in the Beaufort Hunt.
In a heartfelt tribute on Instagram, the Beaufort Hunt expressed their deep sorrow at the loss of their esteemed leader. Captain Ian Farquhar was a pleasure to have as their pilot throughout those years. He passed away peacefully this week.
Many who were fortunate enough to join him on hunts held a great admiration for him, affectionately referring to him as “Captain.” He was not only kind and helpful but also brimming with innovative ideas.
“He had a wonderful sense of humor, and those lucky enough to spend time with him would always remember his exciting and unique life as a hunter and in the army.”
Captain Farquhar cherished his family, his dogs, and above all, his hounds. Upon his arrival in the great beyond, a whole pack of eager dogs surely awaits him, ready to greet their beloved captain once again.
“A true gentleman who loved his country.” Captain Ian Farquhar will be deeply missed.
