Betty Ponds, Jane Stabler and Frankie Pardoe
years, Goshen foxhunters knew they could de- pend on a delicious breakfast prepared for them by Mrs. Stabler and presented in the gracious manner of a wonderful lady at their Brookeville home. Often the Stablers would serve as the host home for joint meets with hunts from all over the mid-Atlantic. Typically after a cold day of hunting from their Pleasant Valley farm, riders and friends would be treated to Jane’s famous bean soup prepared from an old fam- ily recipe and a smoked country ham cured by Stanley and prepared exquisitely by Jane.
