" Ross Harriers . - IAST MEET WITH MR . ROBERTS AS MASTER . The closing meet of the season with this popular little pack took place at Gillow , the residence of Mr. Burton Parry , on Monday last when a large and representative com- pany of sporting ladies and gentlemen assembled . This was also the last occasion on which Mr. Roberts , of King's Thorne , would serve this hunt as Master . Everyone regrets the fact , Mr. Roberts has made himself excedingly popular the the comme ' A good day's sport was thoroughly enjoyed by all present . ' As usual , the first draw on the Gillow land was on the far side of the Michael- church lane , and also " as usual " within a few minutes a strong hare got up in front of hounds , giving the field a gallop worthy of the day . Crossing the brook at Michael- church , she went on nearly to Trevase , then turning left - handed passed the White House and again negotiated the brook at the withy bed above Tretire . Hounds pushed her at a good pace towards the New Inn , but when near there swung fo the right , and took the line down hill to Aberhall , and leaving the latter on the right raced up to Treaddow . Crossing the Hereford and Monmouth road at this point , the field followed on to Little Peterstow , then circling to the left , reached St. Owen's Cross , and when near Pengeth- ler , saw hounds run into their hare . Time , 40 minutes . Capital sport was enjoyed dur- ink the whole of the day - a brace being added to the season's total . perts about his leaving King's Thorne House anl that he was going away , to give them tho direct lie , and say that Mr. Roberts would still be with them , and that some day he would come again ( loud applause ) . Like Mr. Will Wigmore , whom he succeeded , be ( Mr. Roberts ) loved his hounds and loved the sport . He must say too that he had been very lucky , for he had been given frength and health to keep the pack going , for during the whole five years of his master- ship he had not , with the exception of one day , missed a single day during those five years , and he did not think there were many of vlause ) . He should no could say that ( ap- exocedingly good fellowship had existed be- tween the Ross Harriers and the farmers In the Ross Harrier country . For the first four and a half years he never received a s'ngle letter of complaint from a farmer in the country . But since Christmas he had received complaints and in this his secre- tary would back him up of followers riding over the wheat and knocking down fences , and in some cases the fences had been knocked down when there was a gate only a few yards away . Perhaps he , a master , was responsible in a way for that ( Cries of : No. No ) . But it was a very serious com- plaint to be made by non - hunting farmers , and he hoped they would bear this in mind in the future , and that they would open the gates instead of doing this damage , for it would only take them a few seconds longer to open the gates ( applause ) . Then he should like to thank most sincerely the fermers in the Ross Harrier country for their great kindness and good fellowship- he might almost say brotherly love , for they had almost been as brothers together ( ap- ' After partaking of a good luncheon at plause ) .
