The
Seftons
were
liver
and
whites
also,
and
so
were
the
Edges
of
Strelly,
but
mostly
heavily
ticked.
Brockton's
Bounce
was
so,
and
so
were
Ch.
Bang,
Mike,
and
Young
Bang.
Drake
was
more
of
the
Derby
colour;
dark
liver
and
white.
Mr.
Whitehouse's
were
mostly
lemon
and
whites,
after
Hamlet
of
that
colour,
and
notable
ones
of
the
same
hue
were
Squire,
Bang
Bang,
and
Mr.
Whitehouse's
Pax
and
Priam,
all
winners
of
field
trials.
There
have
been
several
very
good
black
and
whites.
Mr.
Francis's,
afterwards
Mr.
Salter's,
Chang
was
a
field
trial
winner
of
this
colour.
A
still
better
one
was
Mr.
S.
Becket's
Rector,
a
somewhat
mean
little
dog
to
look
at,
but
quite
extraordinary
in
his
work,
as
he
won
the
Pointer
Puppy
Stake
at
Shrewsbury
and
the
All-Aged
Stake
three
years
in
succession.
Mr.
Salter's
Romp
family
were
quite
remarkable
in
colour--a
white
ground,
heavily
shot
with
black
in
patches
and
in
ticks.
There
have
never
been
any
better
Pointers
than
these.
There
have
been,
and
are,
good
black
Pointers
also.
HEIGHT
AND
SIZE--A
big
Pointer
dog
stands
from
24-1/2
inches
to
25
inches
at
the
shoulder.
Old
Ch.
Bang
and
Young
Bang
were
of
the
former
height,
and
the
great
bitch,
Mr.
Lloyd
Price's
Belle,
was
24
inches.
For
big
Pointers
60
pounds
is
about
the
weight
for
dogs
and
56
pounds
bitches;
smaller
size,
54
pounds
dogs
and
48
pounds
bitches.
There
have
been
some
very
good
ones
still
smaller.
