horrible fence around the south acres. she
waited peacefully.
George, who had been left at the house, was
not waiting peacefully. He wandered restessly
toward the south acres, Cawed his way up tne
fence and teetered along the rails. Far away
he heard the music OF running hounds. When
the sound increased. he scurried into tangled
patch of forest where he had followed the
aniseed trail yesterday He climbed tree and
tlattened on low hanging branch. In his>mlnd
he was no longer nine-pound cat He was
panther, lying in wait for unwary dogs
A single old hound burst through the under
brush running silently with nose an inch above
the ground. George growled, but the dog went
on without paying any attention. George was
irritated. In the city he was used to respectful
notice from dogs.
Another hound approached, yapping. George
spat viciously as the dog passed under his
branch. The dog yipped in surprise and looked
up But he had been trained not to chase cats,
so he start ed hesitatngly along the trail. George
pretended to climb down the tree in pursuit.
1t was too much for the young hound. HE
came back angrily, yelping for his mates They
arrived and circled the tree. At first they were
self-conscious about stopping to tree cat.
Obviously, however, this was no ordinary cat.
1t was much more exciting than an aniseed bag.

The Wavne County Hunt Club valued those
little tags as highly as more fortunate clubs
valued fox's brush. Both attested that the
owner had been first in at the death. Valerie
knew exactly what she was going to do with the
trophy To show her gratitude she gave George
all the left over coffee cream. 1T seems to me,
she told him. that for once I'm going to be
first in at the finish tomorrow"
Early the next morning she rode Pompey to

curtly He didn't smile when she asked if any

The pack followed.
"Gooooone away-yy!' sang Jeb. and the
Hunt trotted forward over the meadow.
But not Valerie. When the others were out
of sight she cut across country toward the finish
