Excerpt from The Sporting Dog
ON a Virginia day, the winter of 186 3, a human mite peeped through a fence of chestnut rails at the concord of a redhot Confederate landowner and a Federal officer over an old white setter and a bevy of quail, bunch of pah'tridges, they said. Every year since, the pupil has been under the tuition of men who know sporting dogs. Amateurs, professionals, scientists, market-hunt ers, dog-thieves, financiers, jurists, loafers, and clubmen; Bluenoses, Tarh'eels, Hoosiers, Cana dians, Britishers, Germans, Populists, and Squaw men, - for the unfailing indulgence with which they have diminished his ignorance, he tenders acknowledgment.
