CURIOUS LONG-HAIRED CAT. 



This was either a cross with the English wild cat, which 

 sometimes has a mane, or it was an accidental variation of 

 nature. I once bred a long-haired rabbit in a similar way, 

 but at first I failed entirely to perpetuate the peculiarity. I 

 think the above simply "a sport."
