In the Hunt Country Activities Among t he Horse-Lovers of Virginia and Maryland. BY NINA CARTER TABB. DWARD JACOBS of Millwood was the sensation of the Blue Ridge Horse Show yesterday when he returned to the show ring after an absence of many years and won the class for hunters belong- ing to members of the Blue Ridge Hunt or land owners or tenants of Blue Ridge country. Owners rode and performance only counted. “Ned” won the class over about 15 of the best riders in this area, mounted on the best hunters in the country. They all jumped well and finally Mr. Jacobs had to jump off for first place with his daughter, Mrs. P. W. Wetherell (formerly “Billy” Jacobs). There was much applause from the large audi- ence as jump after jump was taken and the blue ribbon was given to “Ned” along with a lovely silver cup. About 25 years ago Edward Jacobs was one of the best masters of fox hounds in Virginia and there was | no better horseman in the State. He| was M. F. H. of the Blue Ridge Hunt | for 10 years and when Richard Hunter Dulany, second master of the Pied-, mont Hunt, had to retire on account | of his health he asked Mr. Jacobs | to take over the mastership of Pied- | mont Hounds. He declined this honor | because of his interest in the Blue Ridge Hunt and because Piedmont Was comparatively far away in the days when automobiles were a novelty and pegple drove “over the mountain™ Wwith horse and buggy. Many of Mr. Jacobs' old friends Were l0oking on yesterday who re- May, when the garden is in full bloom and the park so green, and it never looked lovelier than yesterday. Many guests strolled down to the old spring and enjoyed the beauty of the grounds.
