A FOXHUNTING JOURNAL 67 



back to Fronfield's Corner, where our fox was viewed. 

 Hounds running parallel to the road swung left-handed 

 back to and across the Delchester Dam, up the far hill- 

 side to a welcome check at the top, where we had a mo- 

 ment to breathe, as the soft going had taken a good deal of 

 the steam out of the horses. 



Will Leverton cast hounds left-handed, when they went 

 away at once, crossing the peach orchard and, keeping 

 White Horse on their right, checked a moment at the 

 Meeting House, crossed the road into Emlen Wood's 

 meadow and raced on up-country to Evans's Wood, then 

 bearing left-handed, again crossed into the meadow back of 

 the Klemm Farm, on up the old railroad embankment and 

 into the Malvern Barrens, where hounds pushed their fox 

 through the covert and out the lower end, going at great 

 pace back through the Bryn Clovis Dairy to Pratt's and on 

 to Delchester, where Charles, undoubtedly, went to earth, 

 but hounds did not mark him under. 



There was a fairly good field out for this, the last day of 

 the season, including, besides the Master: John R. Valen- 

 tine, M.F.H. Harford County, on "Apperley," and Mrs. 

 Valentine on "Lone Ben"; Dick and Walter Stokes; Harry 

 Barclay; Lawrence Bodine; Gerry and Mrs. Leiper; Ben 

 Holland on a grey; Miss Ellen Mary Cassatt; Henry and 

 Mrs. Collins; Sam Kirk; Gardner Cassatt on "Greymas- 

 ter"; Lem Altemus; Miss Sinnickson on "Uncle Joe"; Mr. 

 Wilbur on "Champagne"; Fred Sturges on "Cheavaux," 

 and Mrs. Sturges on the faithful "Frosty"; Mrs. Dave 

 Sharp, going brilliantly on a "Master of Craft" four-year- 

 old; Miss Ruth Wood on a big brown horse; Miss Hopper; 

 and our old friend Buck on "Ruskin," and three girls from 

 Bryn Mawr College on three screws they jobbed from some 

 livery stable.
