The folloAving table shows in detail the cod shipped from the 

 shore fishing stations in Alaska from 1876, when the first station was 

 established, to 1925, both inclusive. The name, rig, and tonnage of 

 the transporting vessel is shown, together with the dates of departure 

 from and arrival at the home station, also the number of cod

 Union Fish Co. (formerly the McCollam Fishing & Trading Co.), of San Francisco.
