This figure is reproduced from a life-size photograph, and represents a sample of 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 groove made by the growing of the shell around the spear of grass.
