Murph,
The Potomac River Hunt Club log book sounds like a great read, and I'll bet there were probably some other well known historical gunners listed among it's pages...

Tom, It's good to know one of Senator Hawes' smallbore Beckers is still spending some time in the field, and your sidekick lab "Ice" sure looks to be having a fun hunt, great photos!... I have an interesting old first edition shooting book I found several years ago from the personal library of Harry B. Hawes that was signed to him by the author in 1933, and if I remember correctly 1933 was also about the same time Harry took delivery of a small bore Fox/Becker gun... Not sure if any of the Fox guys collect "Harry B. Hawes" gunning related items, but thought you might find this interesting... Image below shows a small label on the inside cover of the book mentioned above...

Best, Chris ~ CSL
