Thanks to all for the information. There is a long standing tradition in South Carolina of hunting from horseback with dogs. Huntsmen (I mean horse and dog handlers and such) in the 18th and 19thc were mostly African American so a plausible explanation for this being present in a slave context could be that the owner received it as an award for good work. There are, BTW, active fox hunting groups in SC today.

Thanks to Allisdair for correcting my bleak picture of fox hunting in the 
UK.
