SOCIETY. The Hunting Log Chronicles of the Run, the Field, Squires and Their Dames. BY NINA CARTER TABB. | T WAS cold and the ground frozen much too hard to take hounds out l yesterday, so Middleburg Hunt| called off its meet. Orange County meeting, at 11 o'clock st Little Georgetown, drew down to- | ward Dave Waller's place and rode | around in the cold wind for a.few| miles, but did not stir a fox, so every one came in—a blank day. On Tuesday morning Orange County | Hunt met at Rectortown Station and Piedmont Hounds met at Pierce's store, Rectortown, at 1 p.m. Orange County drew Mr. J. W. Raw- ling’s farm, jumped a fox there and | ran to Oak Hill, across the Mason | place, to John Rawlings’ farm, then to | Rectortown and on toward Delaplane. Back by Oak Hill and lost on John | Rawlings’ farm after & good run of | over an hour. They then drew the Arthur Rawlings' farm and jumped a gray fox. Had a short run to Shelby Carter’s and killed. Mrs. Robert Young | got the brush, being the first woman in at the finish. A good many of those hunting with Orange County came back to Rector- town, changed horses, and went out | with Piedmont Hounds. Among those hunting with both packs were Miss Barbara Phipps, Wil- liam Phillips, Horace Moffett and Fred Carter. Piedmont Hunt had a field of 75 out. They rode from the Rector- town-Upperville road, across Mrs. John Ramey's farm, toward Crenshaws| Cross Roads, then across Hubert | Phipps’ place. Started a fox and ran straight away across that farm and | Paul Llewelyn’s, crossed the Atoka- Rectortown road and ran in circles over Raymond Guest's farm, then on down into the Orange County country, over Jay Phipps’ place to the Rumsey farm. 1t was such a hard, long run that the | master and field stopped and called hounds in, as horses and riders were spent and tired. There was much‘ laughter and fun on this hunt, as some of the very best riders in the country took tumbles. Among the first to go| off was Raymond Guest. A slip of a | girl, Fanny Gardiner, who is hunting | in Virginia for the first time this sea- son, chased after Mr. Guest’s horse, as | the reins were dangling on the ground, | and brought him back to his rider.| Away the two of them went after hounds. Raymond introduced himself | as they galloped along and invited the | little girl to come back by his house after the hunt for a drink. (It is hnrd‘, to tell the age of a girl dressed in| hunting togs.) As she was riding back | she told me she would like to go in to Mr. Guest’s, but “I don’t drink, so may- be I can't go,” she said. I assured her | she could come along and take nothing | stronger than tea or milk. Louie Leith, Virginia’s best rider, was the next to take a fall at a fence, but he jumped up, unhurt, with a grin, and joined in the laughter at his ex- pense. Then Harry Worcester Smith, said to know more about fox hunting than any other man in America, was the next to go down. Walter Bowes had a fall, Mrs. Harold Talbott was thrown, and a stranger, who was visit- ing some one, fell at several fences, but luckily néne of them were hurt. A woman who was out with Pied- mont said she had hunted with every pack in America, and with many sbroad, and that this was the best | day's sport and the most enjoyable | hunting day she had ever had. It| was very pleasing to the master. Mr. and Mrs. Norman Proctor Smith | of New York have been spending sev- | eral days as guests of Miss Charlotte | Noland. Mrs. Smith was, until last September, Miss Timmy Dobbin, a great favorite in Virginia. She has taught singing at Foxcroft School for several years. The field and members of the Middleburg Hunt (about 100 in number) were entertained at tea by Mr. and Mrs. Willlam: F. Hitt on Saturday. Timmy Dobbin Smith played the piano and led the cmwd[ in singing old songs and many new | ones that she has learned since llving‘ in New York. Every one was delighted | to see Timmy back.
