    A wire-haired Jack Russell or a fox terrier? and a Glen of Imaal terrier?

    On this date, the Countess was Blanche Vere Ponsonby, née Guest: Her married name became Ponsonby. As a result of her marriage, Blanche Vere Guest was styled as Countess of Bessborough on 24 February 1906.

    interesting woman, from Wiki: her marriage was unhappy and childless. (Years after the fact, it was mooted that Aribert was homosexual and had been caught in bed with a servant, either by Marie Louise or his father.) In December 1900, her father-in-law used his prerogative as reigning Duke of Anhalt to annul the marriage. Princess Marie Louise, on an official visit to Canada at the time, immediately returned to Britain. According to her memoirs, she regarded her marriage vows as binding, so she never remarried. Her memoirs do, however, indicate rage over her marital experience and an obvious dislike of her former husband en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Marie_Louise_of_Schleswig-...

    She happened to be in the news at this time because on January 18, 1914, she arrived with a sightseeing party of British nobility in Colon, Panama -- where, as guests of the British minister there, they intended to do some sightseeing on the new Panama Canal before continuing on to Jamaica.
