Blood-hounds and Deer-hounds were small classes. Greyhounds 

 were chiefly supported by Messrs. Sharpies, Hemming, and H. P. 

 Charles. Pointers brought a large entry, supported by the well- 

 known names of Messrs. Whitehouse, Arkwright, S. Price, Hemming, 

 Moseley, and Dr. J. H. Salter ; Setters also; with the help of Messrs. 

 G. Jones, Purcell-Llewellin, Hemming, G. de L. Macdona, R. Wood, 

 Neville, and Dr. Stone. Retrievers filled well in both varieties, some 

 of the winners being Messrs. J. W. Morris, Gorse, S. Matthew, 

 Hemming, J. Andrews, and G. L. Teasdale-Buckell. Spaniels were 

 good classes, with Messrs. J. Fletcher, W. S. Holmes, Skidmore, 

 T. B. Bowers, P. Bullock, and Langdale amongst the winners. 

 Fox-terriers were abundant, the prize list containing the names of 

 Messrs. J. Fletcher, J. Shepherd, W. Allison, H. Gibson, J. Terry, 

 and Southwell. 



Sheep-dogs were also good classes, with Mr. H. Lacy, Hon. 

 E. Digby, and Messrs. M. C. Ashwin and W. W. Thomson amongst 

 the chief winners, and Mr. Lloyd Price a winner in Old English 

 Sheep-dogs. Dalmatians found Mr. J. Fawdry (so long afterwards 

 identified with this variety) here, I think, for the first time in the 

 prize list. Bull-dogs were large classes, with Mr. G. A. Dawes in 

 a prominent position in most of them, and the Duke of Hamilton an 

 exhibitor. Bull-terriers were well filled, Mr. J. F. Godfree taking a 

 good deal of the money, and the late Mr. J. W. Gurney also a winner. 

 Smooth Terriers found Mr. J. Martin taking all the prizes. Black- 

 and-tan Terriers had Mr. H. Lacy in the front rank, followed by 

 Messrs. G. Wilson and R. Taylor. Skyes were well represented by
