The hunt of Satueday last was for non-winners during the season and was contested by about twenty-five riders. Thi was laid by Messrs, Edblad and commencing on the right hand side of the Bubbling Well Road near Oliver's Bungalow. The scent after being traced to the old road was found to liv along it, and up to and over the small stone bridge at the top, thence the hunt followed what must have been old paper as far as the wall on the Island, then turned back on another line and shortly reached Point on the little round uncommonly near the first part of the run, After cunsiderable delay Mr. Callaway hit off the scent again in the direction of another part of the Island, and the long gallop was given, the Paper crossing at the Wade.
After a short canter down the road the country wus again taken to on the right of the Jesslield rond and Fahwah was the next point made; here a long check ensued, search being made in every direction, Mr. Callaway was again successful in being first back on the track at the top of the Tunsin line, thereby obtaining a Jong lead and was fortunate enough to keep it to the finish. The ground was slightly slippery in places and a number of falls occurred on the flat. Mr, Tulloch narrowly escaped being dragged, through his spur sticking in his stirrup leather. The finish was over a water jump nour the Jessfield road slightly beyond the Bubbling Well, and after Mr. Callaway, came Messrs. Jones, Sampson, Liddell (heavy weight), Matherbe und Walker.
The season is now practically completed and will be looked back to as one of the most successful on record. Not a single hunt has been disputed, nor has ther" been one disqualified run, while the unprecedently fine weather has enabled a hun' to be given on each Saturday since the season was inaugurated, with a full number of additional uries on the usual holidays.
