Dr, Davis, Master of the Paper Hunt Club, isid the trail and gave the ladies only a short ride, starting from the Warren Line and fin ishing down the Bee Line. However, if it was short, it was full of excitement and grief was plenti-fol. Miss Connor came a bad purler, og a result of which it is feared'she may be out of the saddle for some time, When in sight of the flags, Mrs, Strachan came down at a bank and grip and, landing on her head, was knocked out for a while, but fortunately sustained no serious injury.
