This gentleman, who was educated at King's College, London, has all his life been interested in sport of all kinds, and had dogs about him.

As many of us remember, for years he was junior partner in the well-known exhibiting and breeding firm of "Harding Cox & Jaquet," to whom were credited so many prizes and honours some years since.

He was one of the founders of the Bulldog Club, and on two occasions he has acted as judge at Kennel Club Shows. For some time he resided in the Island of Jersey, where he was on the Committee of the Jersey Dog Club, also of the Cycling and Swimming Clubs there, and is still the English representative of the latter on the Life-Saving Society of Great Britain, whose diploma and medal have been awarded to him.

Lodge. He was in the Middlesex Yeomanry Cavalry, in which he distinguished himself by three times winning the regimental prize for Swordmanship (Mounted), besides carrying off first prize for Troop Marksmanship, and other prizes, including Sir J. Whittaker Ellis's cup for Sword Exercise.

I need not remind my readers of how popular was the appointment of Mr. Jaquet to the secretaryship of the Kennel Club, and the golden opinions he has won from all classes of exhibitors by the courtesy and ability he has displayed in that by no means easy position, in which he has been well supported by his Committee, who are all hard workers for the advantage of the Kennel World in general; and, for the discharge of his multifarious duties, his,long experience of dogs and Doggy People stand him in good stead.

I am pleased to be able to give an excellent portrait of Mr. Jaquet, and of the Bull-terrier Champion Faultless, late the property of his only child, who inherits the dog-loving instincts of her father's family, and, besides many other prizes, took the gold medal for Best Non-Sporting Dog in the Jersey Show with Faultless; and the young lady in question has gained distinction in another form of sport, by winning the 150-yards race at the Jersey Ladies' Open Championship Swimming Contest for 1900.

I do not think any more than the foregoing slight sketch is required to show Mr. E. W. Jaquet's title to be included in the ranks of "Doggy People."

By the kindness of Mr. Jaquet I am able to give a capital portrait of Turn Turn, a winner in the Pug Classes some twenty years since, who was run over and killed at the commencement of what promised to be a distinguished career. Turn Turn was the property of Mrs. Wright-Nooth (nee .Miss A. A. L. Jaquet), a sister of Mr. E. W. Jaquet.
