~ NE of the largest, most i'm
4 portant and delightful social
events given so far this season
~ in this part of Virginia, was
the luncheon that Frank c. Littleton
of Oak Hill gave in honor of Mr..
Harry Worcester Smith on Sunday.
Oak Hill, the beautiful and famous
old Colonial house built by James
Monroe as a Summer White House
when he was President of the United
States, looked its very best. Lawns
and gardens SO we'll kept, flowers and
shrubbery in bloom and on beyond
green flelds-on which hundreds of
sheep so peacefully grazed-arose the
Bull Run Mountains in all their
Springtime glory. The many guests
roamed over the grounds and house,
spending hours enjoying everything
about the place-especially the de-
licious luncheon.
This party was certainly the greatest
honor to one of Americas leading
sportsmen - Harry Worcester Smith.
who has been spending the Winter and
Spring at Middleburg, hunting with all
the packs in this part of the country.
