Training Your Own Bird Dog by Henry P Davis was the first sporting book I purchased well over 50 years ago. There is a picture in the book of Mr. Davis standing beside a Setter on point in a coat and tie. In his arms is a side by side that appears to me to be a Parker with a beavertail forearm and I would guess 26 inch barrells. There is a picture on the back of the dustjacket of him with a pointer and side by side. In that picture you can only tell that the gun is a side by side. Sounds like you found gun with alot of history and if I tcould talk I would love to be there to listen
