46 THE AMERICAN HUNTING DOG 



Hard Cash, Manitoba Eap, Alford's John, Jingo, 

 Hal Pointer these are the dogs we really started 

 with. They began with imported King of Kent, 

 Mainspring, Hops and Pontiac. King of Kent and 

 Hops gave us Eip Eap, who starred in the field

 parents. FishePs Frank is a combination of 

 Jingo and Eip Eap (FishePs Eip Eap-Boy's 

 Queen, a Jingo dog) ; Alf ord's John, the great dis 

 covery, is of Lad of Kent extraction, his father be

 into the field trial limelight by the merest accident, 

 and his get are among the prominent winners to 

 day. Manitoba Eap is by Eipple, ex Lady Cy 

 rano, the former a grandson of Eip Eap, and Lady 

 a daughter of King Cyrano. Turning to the dogs 

 now in the stud, we find Silver Sides (Ch. Mani 

 toba Eap-King's Sister), Ch. Comanche Frank 

 (FishePs Frank-Lady Johns, a daughter of Al- 

 ford's John), Eags Eoyal Pauper (Hard Cash- 

 Alford's Eoyal Pauper), which ought to place him 

 as a grandson of Alford's John, the royal pauper 

 of dogdom. Then there is Champion John Proc 

 tor (FishePs Frank-Miss Mariutch), Security 

 (Hard Cash- Alf ord's Eoyal Eags), one of the best
