y2 FOX HUNTING. 



B. Chase, E. Sanford Hatch, H. Percival Glen- 

 dinning, and others, with entries of good horses 

 and superior riding. The contests have been 

 spirited and exciting, and the races have continued 

 highly successful, attracting many of the best 

 citizens of the county and of the city of Philadel- 

 phia, as well as of neighboring towns and 

 counties; the farmers' race still being a prominent 

 feature and hard ridden, every rider doing his best 

 to win, in his own way. 



Up to the fall of 1895 the races were under 

 racing rules established by the Club's race com- 

 mittees, who adopted the approved track rules of 

 the day, as far as they would apply to club mem- 

 bers. 



About June, 1895, for the purpose of en- 

 abling some of the members who had racing 

 horses to enter their horses in association races 

 on other tracks, the Club, by its Master of 

 Hounds, joined the National Hunt Association, 

 and the Rose Tree races have been, since that 

 time, run under the rules of that association.
