Following the Hounds.

On Tuesday, March II, the Blue

together and trotted away toward

Barefoot" Mr.. Butler on THE
Pardon" Mr.. Page on Andy"
and several groOms out on some of
Mr.. Halls string, which will be
shown at Boston in April.
Mr.. Hall drew a covert in some
woodland and started fox, which
gave a good run through some
open country for several miles un-
til he was lost in some thick pine
woods.
Mr.. Halls easy grace in the sad
die has long been much admired by
the hunting set in the North, as
well as in Virginia. Tuesdays
hunt proved no exception to the
rule, as ''Torchlight" sailed over
difficult timber, showing perfect
confidence in his masters iudg-
ment. Mrs. Warthen held the adj
miration of the field as she steadied
her four-year-old down to his
jumps. The Wizard carried
Miss Henry so well that the Mas
ter was heard to speak of him as
"a safe vehicle when he made
clever landing into some thick
woods. The Pardon" went
straight and well until he lost his
footing over stump just as he
took off at a post-and-rail fence.
Mr.. Butler took a cropper, but
was up and off with the field i'm a
minute. Lieutenant Roothart also
came TO grief over a rail fence.
Grey Eagle" is clever jumper
and gave Mr.. Warthen pleasant
ride. The performance of Bare
foot" was very fine until he gave
his rider toss going over a bic
drop jump.
