 CARRIE .7. AND ST. EIMO IV. 



This brace was the lirst of the second series. They were 

 put down on a side hill in a narrow strip of sedge between 

 some woods and a run and worked up to the head of the run 

 where Carrie J. challenged in some weeds, but could not quite 

 make it out. St. Kbno, who was going at speed, jumped the 

 fence and taking a few strides up the hilt caught the scent of 

 probably tin- same bevy, which was running up into the 

 woods. He pointed staunchly until we had crossed the fence, 

 when he drew on a short distance and again pointed in a very 

 styhsh manner. The birds had their heads up and Hushed 

 wild before (he handlers got there, one of them went bid a 

 short distance, a little to the right, and as Carrie came up it 

 got up ahead of her. A little further on she made a very 

 ;_i ■ i lul point to several birds which flushed wild as Short 

 went toward her. St. then took a hand and ashe came round at 

 speed he dropped Hat lo several more which flushed themselves 

 a second or two later. He t hen swung to the le>t and jumped 

 into a very gamy point to a bird which he held, while C atrip 

 was brought round to back. She honored the point in a verv 

 stylish manner, and Haight put up the bird and killed it, St. 

 retrieving very well: When ordered on, St. with lightning 

 speed went straight to some more birds, which lie pinned in 

 line style. They were then ordered up. and the heat was 

 awarded to. st, Elmo IV. Down fifteen minutes. Tins was a 

 short heat, but a very- lively one. and one (hat will belong 

 remembered by those who saw it. The dogs that can hold 

 their own against Carrie .1. among scattered birds in the 

 leaves are very scarce, and the brilliant victory which the 

 gallant son of a gallant sire wrested from the beautiful < t iueen 

 ■ ■I' i ■:•■■ South secures tor him an honored place among the 

 famous dugsot the day. It was now night and we started for

 as if shot to a single bird which had remained. As St, Efinn
