of notables at the opening meet on
Friday morning In Uppervllle.
This little village was filled with
horses and shining motors, for every
one had come out to follow or see
the opening of the fox-hunting sea
son. Nearly every one had arrived
by 9 o'clock, when the master, Dr.
A. C. Randolph, appeared, looking for
all the world as though he had just
stepped from the frame of a hunting
print. Hounds were let from the
wagon by the huntsman. Josh Croun,
and riders began to mount the many
beautiful thoroughbred horses that
were being led around by grooms.
At this point a sporting tandem
came trotting up. driven by Taylor
Hardin, with Mrs. Robert Winmill
seated beside him, both dressed in the
smartest English hunting togs.
Mrs. Howard Lynn of Lake Forest
and Chicago, who is staying with Mrs.
Amory Perkins for the hunting sea

horse. Mrs. George Sloan. Mrs. Amory

to be off. Charles V. B. Cushman,
the latest addition to the Virginia
hunting country (having Just pur*

Mr. and Mrs. Robert Young, William
Hulburt, Arthur White, Richards
Peach, Harry Frost, John Butler,
Roger Bayly and many others were
riding to hounds and making up this
smart crowd of about 60. It was a
lovely sight to see them ride down
the street of this quaint village of
old houses, to Sunny Side lane—
jump a chicken-coop fence and draw
“Green Garden.’’ Two foxes were soon
started and the pack split. They had
a wonderful run across Clifton Mill
to Mrs. Josh Fletcher's place, on
to the Metcalf’s, then to Welbourne
Farm, where the hounds lost after
a good hour's run.
Middleburg Hunt meeting at Ben
ton on Saturday morning denned
one fox and killed another at the end
of a fast and furious run of an hour.
Many notables were In the “field- of
60, on hand to follow the co-masters,

Sands, as they rode out of the gate
way of Benton to cfoss the road
and draw the Basil Hall estate, then
