A Good Show, 191 



brought to the shows wire-haired terriers of character and 

 possessing the right type, his Daylesford Brush being parti- 

 cularly noteworthy. Mr. Izod's Valuer and Velocity have 

 likewise made names for themselves, and so have Mr. S. A. 

 Moore's Rustic Marvel, Mr. T. Watson's Pollok Tina, 

 Mr. Mutter's Surrey Janet (sent to Canada) ; more than 

 useful was Mr. Thurnall's Cauldwell Scorcher ; and worthy 

 of note were Mr. BeacalPs Sunfield Frost, Mr. Bartle's 

 Scorcher, Sir H. de Trafford's Barton Witch, and Mr. 

 Corner's Rydale Pattern, who went to America for about 

 20/., the cheapest terrier which was ever exported, and a 

 marked contrast to Surrey Janet, who realised more than 

 five times that sum. Mr. T. Pearse's Wellingboro' Teaser, 

 bred by Mr. Bartle, was also a good dog, and so was his 

 Briar Clinker. 



At the Fox Terrier Club show in 1894 there was such a 

 collection of wire-haired terriers as had not been seen for 

 many years ; several excellent young dogs made their 

 debut, and special attention was called to the represen- 

 tatives from the kennels of Mr. C. Bartle, of Wellingboro', 

 and of Mr. S. Hill, of Sheffield. The first-named had 

 for some years shown an excellent type of terrier, which, 

 like others of their race, contained some cross with the 

 smooth variety. Still, in appearance they do not indicate 

 such a strain, having hard, close coats, and with a fair 

 amount of wire hair on their legs. Some of Mr. Bartle's 

 terriers have been rather light in bone, but this cannot be 

 said of his puppy Wellingboro' Judy, who came out at the 

 show in question. She won pretty well all before her, and 

 made a keen struggle with Roper's Nutcrack for the 

 50-guinea challenge cup. It is quite possible that Judy is 

 one of the dozen best wire-haired terrier bitches we have
