A Loss to the Sporting World: YOKOHAMA SPECIE BANK
Cheshire loses one of its best- known sportsmen by the death of Mr. Edward Loo Townshend, which has occurred at the early age of 45. The loss, will be especially felt in the coursing world, since although Mr. Town- abend was a relative newcomer in that branch of sport he had taken it up with the greatest enthusiasm, and was very popular in coursing circles. He was lucky in his first season, winning the Waterloo Cup in 1912 with Tide Time, which he had been fortunate enough ❤ pick up for 25 guineas. List February the dog ran into the Just four. Mr. Townshend' ac companied Lord Delamere, ats wife's cousin, in one of his first big-game expeditions through Somaliland. He was a promin- ent member of the Cheshire Hunt THE OHARTERED BANK OF and of the Tarporley Hunt Green INDIA, AUSTRALIA AND
