There was a good gathering of women in the Church on Tuesday, December 7th, when six new members were admitted by the Rev. A.G. King.

A very helpful address was given by the Rev. F.S. Holmes, of Furneaux Pelham.

After the service members adjourned to the Village Hall to ballot for a Committee for 1927, to have tea given by a number of members, and to listen to piano solos and songs by Rev. and Mrs Holmes.

Rev. A.G. King expressed the thanks of all to Rev. and Mrs Holmes, both for taking part in the service and for the music.

Mrs Laing, Mrs Pratt, Mrs Laird and Mrs Wren were elected as the Committee.

There is no truth in the rumour that Miss Elliott is giving up her school.

On the contrary, she hopes in due course to arrange for weekly boarders also.

Puckeridge Hounds at Corney Bury

The Puckeridge Hounds in full cry was a sight afforded a number of football spectators on Saturday, when a fox, found near Harestreet, ran to the top of the park, and later to Corney Bury House.

The huntsmen dismounted and searched the rooms and the roof, and it was while the hounds were inside the house, that Reynard slipped from his hiding place and made off towards Capons Wood.

The hounds soon picked up the scent and ran towards Capons before turning left, and crossing the High Road near Buckland finally losing their fox at Faulk Leys.

Earlier in the day they killed a fox at Harestreet.
