 | | However, the Japanese Chin did not make its appearance in the British show ring until 1862, and is not recorded as being shown in the United States until 20 years later. |
 | | Before long, Chins were taken to America, but there is no record of the date of their arrival In that country or of the persons responsible for introducing Chins there. |
