ITEMS OF INTEREST.

WAIKATO HOUNDS.

MEET AT MATANGI.

A meet of the Waikato’ Hounds took place at Mrs W. A. Oliver’s farm “Wartle,” Matangi, on Tuesday, when a good field met the master, Mr Wynn Brown, with 15 couple of hounds. The day was overcast but no rain fell, and excellent sport was enjoyed. Scent was patchy and at times very good. The first hare gave a short fast run and just saved her scut by going to ground. Another hare ran over a nice piece of country, which carried a good scent, which enabled hounds to get a break on the field. Hounds rattled their quarry along for about four miles at a fast pace, eventually running into their hare and killing in the open. Hares were scarcer and the rest of the country was drawn blank.

At about 4 u’clock the field returned to “Wartle” where they were entertained to afternoon tea by Mrs Oliver, for which the master returned thanks.
