The Brunswick Hunt Club was organized in 

 1889; holds annual field trials at Barre, Mass., 

 and is composed of some of the best known fox- 

 hunters and business men of the New England 

 States. 



This organization has done much for the im- 

 provement of the hound and hunting in New 

 England. There are quite a number of Hunt 

 Clubs in the South that hold field trials, making 

 regular awards for the best hounds in the differ- 

 ent classes. 



The only hound pack trials ever held in this 

 country were at Westbury, Long Island, in the 

 fall of 1902. The five packs competing for the 

 v$i,ooo prize were: Green Spring Valley Hunt, 

 Redmond C. Stewart, M. F. H. ; Meadowbrook 

 Pack, John Leeper, Acting M. F. H. ; Aiken 

 Pack, Thomas Hitchcock, Jr., M. F. H. ; two 

 packs from Hickory Valley Hunt, J. M. Avent,
