PODINGTON—THE MEET—On Tuesday last, the Oakley hounds met at Hinwick Hall, the residence of Mr. B. A. Wontner. The weather was fine and a large number of horsemen and pedestrians were present. Two foxes were killed.
STAG HUNT—On Wednesday last a pack of the Kempston harriers raised a stag in Odell Great Wood and had a splendid run of some three or four hours. He was run down in a grass field belonging to Mr. Oliver Mee, of Harrold, killed and taken to Mr. Fever, butcher, where he was dressed and hung up in the shop. It is supposed that a pair of deer have strayed from Kimbolton park to these woods.

Scholars’ Outing—Favoured by fine weather, the scholars of the Independent Wesleyan Sunday School, accompanied by a few friends, visited Southend-on-Sea for their annual outing on Saturday. A very pleasant day was spent, the arrangements being made by Mr. Mark Wildman, Sunday School superintendent, who conducted the party.
