Fig. 2.— This figure is reproduced from a life-size photograph, and represents a sample 

 ot the newly-set oysters taken from Point Judith pond by Mr. George A. Griffin. The 

 small specimens are seen to be very thickly scattered over the surface of the large oyster 

 shell, and the larger specimens below and to the left represent oysters which have set on 

 the widgeon grass. The under surface of these oysters bears a deep grove made by the 

 growing of the shell around the spear of grass.— {Reproduced from Report for 1901.)
