made up the field. Madison hunters, headed by Mr. Jack Blankenbaker, were Mrs. Watts and her .daughter, Caroline and Miss Sarah Ellen George. Captain William Tucker, hbme on leave from Travis Air Force Base in California, was the hunter from the farthereet; Mrs. Jane Hare came up from Lynch burg. The Culpeper County contingent consisted of Oliver Durant, Elzy Brown and three little Browns, andtylary Jamieson. The rest of the hunters were of Rappahannock County: Masters Jim Bill Fletcher and Jack DeBergh, Stuart Wells (of Wysatta, Minnesota, and Sperryville), Wade H. Massie III and his son, Clifford Miller of Richmond, Brandy and Sperryville, Miss Diane Bruce, Mrs. Raymond Wire, Newbill Miller, and Nancy and Magruder Keyser. For over one hour, hounds worked hard, butunavailingly, through the Mill Hill Woods and over Graves' Bottom. Returning to the woods, they finally jumped their Red. They trailed to the Watts' farm. Here the quarry ran through the angus cattle and succeeded in fouling up his track so th; houijds were stymied. Mri W^|s pointed westward to t branch-drained fields abo the Fray house. 'There1 where HE usually runs." Oil Dodson, the huntsman, gathei ed hounds and cast in that d: rection. Within 12 minute they had the big fellow goii again. The whole field viewt him...he s at least a yai long (and as red as Can Miller’s hair!) After a brisk run along his branch bank and in and out of the adjacent wood, he took himself into the Fray barn yard, fouled up his track a second time and completely confused hounds. This “HE" is making a reputation for himself in Madison County. Lawton Blankenbaker
