i6o COURSING 



From these two greyhounds come the modern breed. 

 Bachelor was the ancestor of Bugle, who through Borron's 

 Bluelight founded what might be called the Canaradzo breed ; 

 including in this title the progeny of Lady Stormont, and that 

 of Blackcloud. Bugle is also represented in the pedigree of 

 David. Bachelor is likewise the ancestor of that other famous 

 line of Senate and Oliver Twist. Oliver Twist, who was said 

 to be by no means a good dog himself, though he was second 

 to Harlequin for the Waterloo Cup, was the sire of Fudge at a 

 year old, and died two years afterwards. He was the grandsire 

 of Judge and Sunbeam. The family of Judge was, and is, one 

 of the most successful. Sunbeam, we think, still lives in Sir 

 Thomas Brocklebank's strain, which is ever astonishing us by 

 exhibitions of its stoutness. 



Oliver Twist's brother. Senate, has a larger and an equally 

 successful family to represent him. The descendants of his 

 sons. Junta and Sackcloth, still take high rank among the best. 

 He is also the ancestor of Long's David. In this great sire the 

 two branches are united, for he has also a double strain of 

 King Cob. 



This other great branch in modern pedigrees, i.e. King Cob, 

 was the sire of Figaro and The ToUwife, and grandsire of 

 Sam. Through Figaro we have Bedlamite and the four sisters 

 Mocking Bird, Marionette, and Humming Bird, and one 

 without a name, which has made a narne for herself, as the 

 ancestor of Bab-at-the-Bowster, the most worthy descendant 

 of Czarina. 



Bedlamite was the grandsire of Cardinal York, his brother 

 Picton, and that great family. Mocking Bird, through Mansoor 

 and Mechanic, has a large family to keep her name alive. 

 Humming Bird lives in the progeny of Lady Stormont and 

 her son Cashier, and joins her unnamed sister in Contango. 



Again, Sam was the progenitor of Bab-at-the-Bowster, and 

 the union of Sam and The Tollwife produced Motley, and 

 Mrs. Kitty Brown, the ancestors respectively of David and 

 Chloe.
