HOLD ON TO THE LINE 



EXPLANATORY NOTES. 



The figures in line with the names refer to pages in the original 

 " Kennel Stud Book," where further pedigrees will be found. 



The dates over the names of Sires and Dams denote the year when 

 those were entered whose pedigrees previously appear in this work. 



The few Hounds not traceable direct to the first volume will be 

 found at the end of the respective entries. 



In all cases Hounds are understood to belong to those Kennels 

 where they were entered^ whether bred at home or procured from other 

 establishments ; thus their pedigrees are readily found.
