This section is from the book "Dog Shows And Doggy People", by Charles H. Lane. Also available from Amazon: Dog Shows And Doggy People.
The subject of this sketch will be known to many of my readers more especially in connection with Bull-dogs, but when I first knew him he took a keen interest in some of the Terrier family.
He has frequently judged Bull-dogs at London and provincial shows, and has bred the following Bull-dogs, amongst others: - Holy Terror, Graven Image, Bathos, Ami, Sans Souci, Carthusian Model, Carthusian Cerberus, Carthusian Catheri ne Wheel, Carthusian Caution, and claims to have bred Datho-lite, whose dam was given as a bitch of Mr. Jackson's, without the name of sire.
He has exhibited at most of the shows held between Edinburgh on the one hand and Redruth, Cornwall, on the other, and not often "out of the money," but he does not look upon exhibiting as strictly remunerative!
When he resided at Hinton Charterhouse, near Bath, he kept a large kennel, almost entirely Bull-dogs; but since he has removed to Devonshire he has considerably reduced the number for want of space.
He acted as Hon. Secretary for the dog shows held in connection with the Royal Cornwall Shows on two occasions; he was, prior to 1880, a member of the Committee of the Plymouth Dog Show; he was for some time on the Committee of the Frome Dog Shows; in 1888-9-90 he was Hon. Secretary of the Bath Bull-dog Shows; and in 1891-2-3 Hon. Secretary of the Bath Dog Shows, so successfully held, on one occasion with 1,300 entries, in that fashionable town. For many years he has been a Vice President of the National Dog Show, Birmingham.

He has been joint author and compiler of all the issues of the Bull-dog Register, which is so cordially received by those, and they are many, interested in the national breed.

From a print after a drawing by R. H. Moore.
Occasionally he has reported for all the leading fancier papers, confining himself to his favourite variety, which has brought him prominently amongst Doggy People.
Besides the capital portrait of this well-known fancier, I give reproductions of the portraits of some of his prize Bull-dogs.
