FALDONSIDE TO DALGIG. 265 



then they quite clianged tlieir minds. She was a nice 

 bitchy but there should have been a transfer of names 

 between her and " Veto/' or '' Cliardona/^ in order 

 to render them strict poetical justice. This daughter 

 of Avalanche, a Welsh bitch, was quite the beauty of 

 the kennel. She had never run badly yet, and she 

 got first turn from Silver Rays at Southport (where 

 she was third for the Bitch Puppy Stakes) and di-

There have been great changes since then. Calaba- 

 roono won a Waterloo Purse and the Brownlow Cup, 

 and was sold to the late Lord Uffington for c€200, who 

 won the Sundorne Cup with him, and had the morti- 

 fication of seeing him put out in his first tie for the 

 Waterloo. He was always a very beefy difficult dog- 

 to train, and from this cause he had been beaten in 

 Mr. Campbell's hands for his first Cup course the 

 year before. Cadazooro has also gone, and in fact 

 only Coodareena and some puppies remain. 



Mr. Campbell has other specialities besides grey- 

 hounds, and his herd are well known through 

 Ayrshire. Cardigan, his best bull, won about JlOO 

 in Highland Society and other prizes, and that sum 

 was refused from Sir James Ferguson, M.P., who 

 wished to take him to Paris. Many medals, one of 

 them a <£10 gold one for the reclamation of waste

 on the Marquis of Bute's estate, under Sir James 

 Stuart's guardianship, when nearly a hundred stocks 

 were shown, have also come to Dalgig. Cardigan
