"Patrick Reginald Chalmers (1872–1942), an Irish writer, distinguished himself through his work as a poet, journalist, and author, often focusing on hunting and sports. Born in County Cork, Ireland, and educated at Haileybury and Trinity College, Cambridge, Chalmers pursued a banking career before his humorous verse and short pieces in Punch, a British weekly magazine of humour and satire, launched his writing career.
