OTAGO HUNT CLUB
MEET AT “ SEA VIEW "■ ' The above club met on Saturday at “ Sea View,” Corstorphine, over the properties of Messrs W. Clarke, J. Day, N. Hansen, A. Sim, and R. Sim. The pack was sent away shortly after 3, and, picking up the scent quickly, and working well, set the large field off at a. merry pace. Starting off in Mr'Clarke’s property, three post-and-rail jumps along the sea coast were the first to be negotiated. Tlie next was a gorse hedge,, which brought the followers into Mr <Hay’s property, in the vicinity of. Green Island Bush. From there the trail brought the followers to a post-and-rail jump at the top of the hitl.'l They then had a good gallop across country coming on towards the St. Clair golf links. A post-and-rail at the rear of Mr Day’s house was then negotiated. The next jump. was a gorse hedge, which was well cleared by all. This was followed by a post-and-rail, bringing the followers into Mr Hansen’s property. Coming out ot this property on to the Black Head road the hounds were checked to allow the tailenders to catch up with the hold. ’Coming•into’ Mr 'A. Sim’s property the first jump was a post-and-rail near the road. This was followed by two good gorse hedges in the paddock where the spectators were gathered. At the second of these the huntsman had a >iflout, but, although dazed, was wot seriously hurt; This mishap held up the field for a short period, but Mr Bert Hastie mounted the huntsman s .horse and. the hunt. After jumping a second gorse hedge a sharp turn to the right was taken for a post-and-rail. bringing the followers into air H. Sim’s property, where four gorse hedges were cleared in good style, the “ kill ” taking place in a paddock not far from the golf links. MissiD, Mowat, riding her new hunter, Dolly Varden. who jumped exceptionally well, gamed the brush for the first lady in at I he “ kill” The hunt was one of the longest held this season, being over four miles of good hunting country, with sixteen jumps, and considering the heavy state of the going, the jumping was very good.
