Jasper Hall Livingston

He was chargé d'affaires (Secretary of Legation) under Ambassador Washington Irving at Madrid and later the Master of the Pau Hounds for 11 non-consecutive winter seasons between 1847 and 1873.

His twin sister, Catherine Louisa Livingston, married Maurice Power, later a British MP and Lieutenant Governor of St. Lucia.

Their aunt, Sarah Livingston, was the wife of Founder, Statesman, New York Governor and Chief Justice John Jay.

[3] Livingston was credited with saving the Pau Hunt by purchasing the hounds from Pery Standish of Farley Castle.

[10] This article was then mocked with a series of thirteen lithographs by Pierre Eugene Marc (1819–1885) assembled in album form in 1860.

He legitimized neither Jasper Hall Livingston nor Richard Francis Lalor Power as Masters of the Pau Hounds during this period and thought it unfortunate young Americans from the "wild-west" had never had the opportunity to hunt wild animals with a pack of hounds.
