This was the only spill of the day. The hounds ran very,fast, and were under complete control by the huntsman (Mr H. Welch). Mr K. E. Maunsell kindly provided afternoon tea, and for which he was heartily cheered. The following took part in the run: Messrs H. Welch (huntsman), on Rata; J. Floyd, on Mimosa; J.
