Cup, ditto at the Club Trials at Clumber Park, 1900, with Challenge 

 Bowl, and have taken other honours at many leading shows. 



To even mention the names of the dogs and the prizes taken by 

 this fancier would occupy more space than I could give to the 

 matter; but I think I have said enough to show that the subject 

 of this sketch, who 

 devotes so much of 

 his time and atten-

 and training of high-

 sporting purposes, is 

 well entitled to be 

 included in the ranks 

 of Doggy People, and 

 I am pleased to be 

 able to give a capital 

 portrait of Mr. F. 

 Winton Smith and 

 two of his friends, 

 accompanied by a 

 couple of his well- 

 known Clumbers. 



I ought to have 

 said that Mr. Winton 



Smith's kennels contain Pointers of all sizes and colours ; Setters, 

 both English and Irish ; Retrievers, Wavy and Curly, the latter 

 black and liver ; Spaniels, Irish, Norfolk, Field, and Cockers ; so 

 that it forms one of the largest of mostly sporting dogs in the 

 kingdom, and although many are prize winners, none are kept 

 which are not able to do their proper work also.

 kennels of St. Bernards, both Rough and Smooth-coated, in the 

 possession of any one owner. Most of them I well remember,
