THE Riding and Hunt Club HOUNDS
IL have had great sport in the last
week. When hounds met at Normandy
Farm they had a wonderful days hunt
ing. First they drew Creamer's WOODS
back of Normandy Farm, started a 1ox
and had q short run Of about 10
minutes and lost. They then went
across Irwin Butts place, on through
The Glen and drew Frank Taylors S.
Started the second fox there, which
took them through the Clagett place
and Mrs. Leonard Curtis farm. Here
hounds ran into the woods recently
bought by Mr.. w. A. Julian, treasurer
OF the United States. but unfortunately
the two farms in Maryland that have
been purchased by Mr.. Julian have
been closed to fox hunting. Con-
seouently the field had to pull up, as
they could not ride on his land. Hounds
went on, however, as they were so hot
on the trail of the fox there was no
stopping them. The field viewed the
fox as he ran toward the woods and
soon hounds came out through the
woods running two foxes. The pack
split and for nearly a mile ran the
two foxes about 40 feet apart through
an open meadow in full view. One
fox was lost, however, and the other
one ran to the river, where he was put
in. It was thrilling run and q day
OF hunting that was thoroughly en-
joyed by the master, Dr.. Fred Sander
son; Claude Owen, honorary whip,
and the enthusiastic field. Among

hounds met at Scotland last week
they first drew Riddick's farm and
Tuckerman's, from there to Dawson's s
farm, found q fox and ran across Mrs.
Joe Bradley's farm to Briggs. Turned
and ran back to Bradley's. This was
q long run and the fox was viewed
most Of the time. They ran until
dark. The field had to stop on this
account, but the huntsmen and whips
went on after hounds and did not get
them In until some time after dark.
