MISS DOROTHY SEWELL 



155 



In her love for riding- and hunting, the young lady who 

 looks so much at home in this picture, on the good-looking six- 

 year-old brown horse, " Hotspur,' takes after her father and 

 mother, whose portraits are given on pp. 398 and 401, vol. i. 

 xAlthough at the time this photograph was taken, in January, 

 1900, Miss Dorothy Sewell had not seen fifteen summers, yet 

 she was as much at home on the back of the keen buck- 

 jumping '' Hotspur," by " Hesper," as she used to be upon 

 the well-known polo ponies, "Vanity" and "Coco," whose 

 portraits, with those of her younger sisters, are given upon the 

 opposite page.

Thanks to her father's careful tuition, Miss Dorothy Sewell 

 can now steer her own line safely and well across any part of 

 the Essex countrv. She never orets in anv one's wav, or 

 attempts to ride in the huntsman's pocket. 



Her young sisters bid fair to be equally good in the saddle.
