Ah Cum (dog)
Description:'Every Dondo that has been brought to me or that I have received any report of – and Dondos occur sporadically among the Pekingese – is ultimately descended from a certain pair Ah Cum and Goodwood Meh. Five Pekingese – the first to come to England – arrived after the looting of the Imperial Palace in 1860 – one ‘Sooty’ went to Queen Victoria [note: ‘the Queen, I mean’], was kept in the Royal Kennels & never bred from. Schlorff and Hytien went to Lord John Haye, and formed the basis of his extensive kennel. He has bred once a white [2-3] dog with dark eyes & black nose, but never had an albino. The other pair of the 1860 batch Guh[?] & Meh were rich chestnut brown with black masks & points. They were kept going by direct descent at Goodwood till the early nineties without record of albinism. Then 1996, Ah Cum & Minosa were brought from the Imperial Palace at Pekin by Mrs Douglas Murray, and from the mating of Ah Cum with Goodwood Meh – a descendent of the 1860 Meh – or from his supposed sister Minosa – all the albinos that I have been able to trace descended. The only rule to avoid an albino Pekingese appearing sporadically in your kennel is to avoid the Ah Cum & Meh stock, or imported Pekingese, who are likely to come from their ancestry.' (ff. 2-3)
'Thus far we have not deduced any black [15-16] dogs or red dogs which exhibit pure dominance, there is always an occasional albino turning up. But the albinism tends to be less & less perfect, and, I believe, it will be possible ultimately to obtain almost any grade of albinism. I have at present a bitch with one normal and one albinotic eye, and a brown skewbald coat, Choo Ko, or ‘Wan eye’. Mated with her own father, however, she has not yet perpetuated her hetero-chromia, but given me three skewbald puppies, one of whom Ming Wang, I show you tonight. He has imperfectly pigmented mucous membrane – the liver colour. Choo Ko is like our Dondos a piebald Pekingese directly descended from Ah Cum & Goodwood Meh on one side.' (ff. 15-16)

Charles-Auguste-Edouard Cornaz
Description:'But in the case of Pompek crossed with Dondo, this café au lait type, or scraped[?] chocolate type can remain permanently, and give a very remarkable new type with albinotic eyes, pink nose and this coloured coat. I have now bred such [illeg.] dogs. Dams from first generation Pompek & pure Dondo, [12-13] are of a litter of which the others were two pure albinos, and there were no Pompeks; and the other three from crossing a pure Dondo Wang, with a Pompek extracted from Pompek & Dondo. I hope these café au lait albinos may perpetuate themselves, but crosses are not possible as yet, as we have only yearling dogs. In the hope that we may establish a permanent breed of these semi-Dondos, I have given them an independent name to the memory of the first great student of albinism, the Belgian [sic] ophthalmologist, and call them Cornaz spaniels.'

Fe (dog)
Description:'Just as the Mendelian category – absence of pigment – fails with eye, so it fails with coat. Marked aberrations are rare, but albinism does not breed true, if by that is meant its absolute like. Jack & Jill have given us very white coated dogs like Patty, but they have also given us cream coloured albinos, down to brown – look at the coats exhibited – and in one rare instance, they gave us Fe a piebald with imperfectly albinotic eyes.'

Sir Francis Galton
Description:'the 2nd generation Pompek, the 2nd generation Dondo & Cornaz spaniel are not the only types which appear when Dondo is crossed with Pompek. Brindle red dogs have appeared in this generation. These brindle red dogs when crossed inter-se give almost entirely brindle reds, the exception being about one albino in seven or eight. I have bred about 17 of these red brindles now & hope to get rid of the occasional albinism. They are a most delightful type of dog and I find them in great demand. I have named them the Galton spaniel. Thus the [13-14] Galton spaniel arises either from crossing Pompeck with Dondo, or from crossing Galton spaniels inter se. I have also got it by crossing Galton Spaniel with Dondo in which case it seems to me a more beautiful dog than when obtained in the other two ways, as it tends to be more pure red & less brindle. The Galton spaniel is a most charming and, I think, if it be possible, deserves to be established as a separate breed.' (ff. 13-14)

Jack (dog)
Description:
'Albinism is relatively rare in the [1-2] dog, but fortunately for our work Nettleship in 1907 was able to procure three albino dogs Tong I, Jack and Jill, and later these were added to by the purchase of two others Beenie and Spook, while certain number of other albinos have been offered to me of recent years.' (ff. 1-2).
'There is every grade of pigmentation from a markedly loaded anterior surface to one passed as without anterior pigment in which a few granules will probably be discernable with the microscope. Just as the Mendelian category – absence of pigment – fails with eye, so it fails with coat. Marked aberrations are rare, but albinism does not breed true, if by that is meant its absolute like. Jack & Jill have given us very white coated dogs like Patty, but they have also given us cream coloured albinos, down to brown – look at the coats exhibited – and in one rare instance, they gave us Fe a piebald with imperfectly albinotic eyes. In the above I am speaking of pure-bred albinos, but with extracted albinos I get wider deviations, and have almost established a chocolate albino.' (f. 8)

Edward Nettleship
Description:‘In the year 1906 the late Edward Nettleship and I began a lengthy inquiry into albinism in man. Before long we took into partnership C.E. Usher, whose large contributions to our series of pedigrees and observational work on all forms of leucosis more than entitled him to full responsibility for our joint publication. Nettleship’s splendid power of following up details of family history, his relative leisure, his patient enthusiasm, and above all his wide ophthalmological knowledge provided what I personally largely lacked, and his recent death has been a grave loss to our joint work. Luckily in my remaining colleague, Mr Usher, most of these features are still present, combined with a youth and vigour, which is of endless profit to our joint work.
Early in the course of our researches, we found that the difficulties arising in dealing with man for the several problems of albinism were very great owing to the extreme rarity of material for microscopic examination and we were forced for many of our problems to turn to other types of life. Albinism is relatively rare in the [1-2] dog, but fortunately for our work Nettleship in 1907 was able to procure three albino dogs Tong I, Jack and Jill, and later these were added to by the purchase of two others Beenie and Spook, while certain number of other albinos have been offered to me of recent years.'

Olga (dog)
Description:'Having proved that these pure-bred Dondos formed a breed which would go on with rare exceptions perpetuating itself, we next looked for a type of dog of somewhat the same size, which was in marked contrast for purposes of hybridisation. We chose the pure bred black Pomeranian. It is fairly high from the ground, has a markedly different [9-10] leg shape, a wholly different muzzle, ear, and bark; its psychical characters are wholly different too. Black Poms with the largest amount of black were selected. Olga’s parents were black, her four grandparents, her eight great grandparents, her 16 great-great grandparents and 28 out of her 32 great-great-great grandparents; [30] of the 32 were known and 2 unknown. I would draw your attention to the difference between the muzzle of Olga & the normal Pekingese. The result of caressing the black Pom & the albino Pek is the second type of dog I mention to you tonight, which we term the Pompek.' (ff. 9-10)
