"Cider", the blue belton English Setter in the video in reality is "Earl's Coronation" and is of the Earl Twombly line (from which came Ford's "Cider" and "Tober") and is the sire of the pup "Olga's Grace" that Kathy and I will be picking up in the first week of August. Coronation Kennels in Lowell Vt. is owned and operated by Legh and Jenn Higgins. Legh makes an appearance in the video, second from left, in the clip of the four hunting companions.

What a beautiful story! Thanks for posting.

My favorite Corey Ford story is "Seat of Justice" because it includes a Parker .410 in skeet configuration, field chokes, boats, bad wives, marksmanship, and "law and order". Would anyone be willing to particiapate in a U Tube video reenacting "Seat of Justice"?
