THE WItiET COUNTY EXPRESS AND AGRICULTURAL (AZETTE TUESDAY,_ AUGUST 3,1880

ATHLITIC SPORTS.
A gallant tall runner of E Company looks se if he'd
run away from everything; but some of the knowing
one are sweet on Luckham, • dark energetic man, and
others on Chaffin, short but well knit. They measure

and Caleb Hall, covering long distances at every stride,

The remaining prises will be contested for at the camp
next year, wherever that may be held.
Before leasing, the offimri complimented, and
thanked Mr. Trump for the very excellent style in
which he had catered for them. He (Mr. Trump) had
looked after their creature comforts so well that left
nothing to be desired.
The police arrangements were under the personal
supervision of Supt. Mullah, of Beaminster, and for
the convenience of the superintendent's staff, three
tents were pitched at the north-eaat end of the field.
Supt. Mac Hale deserves praise for the style in which
he arranged the duties of his men, &c., and it is satis-
factory to know that their services were not called
(unpleasantly) into requisition.
The Mayor of Bridport and a large number of
I distinguished visitors mewled on Friday with the
I officers, when a splendid collation was hid upon the
table. Au, mg the guests were—two Comteeses, by
invitation of Lieut. 'l'. 1). B. Bowline, and a number
of gentry from all parts of the c
After the sports, which wen, somewhat interfered
with by heavy showers of rain, large numbers started
for home, the road to Bridport being lively with all
descriptions of vehicles, some of whom went the ince
in fine style. Our team was a pretty pair of grey
entire., driven by Mr. Toms, of Tytherleigh, who
caught the train for us with a comfortable interval of
time to spare, in spite of the weight ID carriage of a
stout gentiemm, heavy enotoh to be charged four
fares. Drenching rain had fallen all down the line,
atd Maiden Newton station, as usual, was the only
maiden in Dorset we don't like to meet. Here inde-
finite waiting f tr the down train was only relieved by
the smiles of the Hebes at the bar, and the gossip of
the good folk', who had provided themselves with
stooks for "camping out" at railway stations.
On Saturday morning Private Green, of the Gilling-
ham Company, accidentally fnschtred his leg just as
the tents were being pitched, lie was taken to the
camp hospital and treated by Acting-Surgeon Hay,
and was ultimately conveyed to Bridport railway-
station for home.
On Saturday the C Company marched home, Icing
entertained at dinner ea route, at Bridehea I House,
the residence of B. Williams, Esq. Fortunately our
volunteers' risk of bad weather was not vieited as
they might have feared. Fortun s favoured the bold,
and so they finished up s.greetbiy a very chequered
week of camp life, which was, however, a capital
outing, take it all in all.
