Miss Clark and Sands will be mar- ried next June at her mother’s place at Nahast, Mass. They will then come to their Virginia farm, which is being remodeled.

But cards for December are out and on Saturday members met at H. M. Luttrell’s at 11 am, with a small but enthusiastic field following Dr. Edmund Horgan, M. F. H. They drew through Luttrell’s woods toward Little Cobbler Mountain, then through Ben McCarty's to Goose Creek, They rode around until 1 p.m., then started a'fox, and the fun began. They en- joyed one of the greatest runs any hunt has had this season. It was 4 o'clock when the hunt ended. Horses and riders had been out five hours, running three hours as fast as they could go, with hardly a check. Dr. Horgan decided to call it a day, but the hounds were 5o hot on the trail of the fox they could not be called off. The fleld came in at 4, but the hounds did not return to the kennels until late that night. Hunting Log—Tomorrow’s Meets. Virginia, Piedmont Fox Hounds, Dr. A. C. Randolph, M. F.
