Mr. J. A. Doyle 



Mr. Doyle's numerous 

 friends throughout the 

 land will not require to 

 be told he has long 

 been a staunch and 

 useful member of the 

 Kennel and Fox-terrier 

 Clubs, an able and 

 popular judge, chiefly 

 confining his attention 

 to Fox-terriers, Irish 

 Setters, and Collies, and 

 universally respected and 

 esteemed amongst a 

 very wide circle of 

 Doggy People, with 

 whom he has held a 

 high position for the last 

 twenty-five years, and by 

 whom his unassuming 

 manners, fairness, and 

 sterling worth are gene-

The dog with Mr. 

 Doyle in the portrait 



(which I consider an excellent likeness) is the Smooth Fox-terrier 

 Beggarman, a special favourite with his owner.

 who had the pleasure of knowing him will remember what an 

 ardent fancier he was, chiefly confining himself to Pomeranians, 

 of which he had some excellent specimens. Probably the best 

 known were Twigge of Frisinghall, Park Masher, Park Swell, 

 Emerald, and Brilliant, the latter of whom, one of the best 

 headed dogs of the breed ever seen, and carrying a grand coat, 

 is shown in the photograph sent me for the purposes of this
