Description

Excerpt from The Bar Sinister In the dog world, the original of the bull - terrier in the story is known as Edgewood Cold Steel and to his intimates as Kid. His father was Lord Minto, a thoroughbred bull terrier, well known in Canada, but the story of Kid's life is that his mother was a black-and-tan named Vic. She was a lady of doubtful pedi gree. Among her offspring by Lord Minto, so I have been often informed by many Canadian dog - fanciers, breeders, and exhibitors, was the only white puppy, Kid, in a litter of black-and-tans. He made his firstappearance in the show world in 1900 in Toronto, where, under the judging of Mr. Charles H. Mason, he was easily first. During that year, when he came to our kennels, and in the two years following, he carried off many blue ribbons and cups at nearly every first-class show in the country. The other dog, Jimmy Jocks, who in the book was his friend and mentor, was in real life his friend and companion, Woodcote Jumbo, or Jaggers, an aristocratic son of a long line of English champions. He has gone to that place where some day all good dogs must go. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
