 year in succession, both the Hunt Cup and Welter Cup, 

 the former with Lord John, ridden by Turner, and the 

 latter with Maid-of-all-W'ork, ridden by Mr. R. C. Ball. 

 There were eleven starters for the Essex Hunt Steeplechase 

 (Handicap). Mr. Colvin's Emily, ridden by the owner,

 bitter wind, prevailed for some hours during the morning, 

 but in spite of this there was a large attendance, including
