190 FisJiing- Tackle Makers. 



To this Viator replies, 



" Then, good Master, let it be at 

 Charles Brandon's, for he is neerest to 

 my dwelling, and I pray lets meet there 

 the ninth of May next about two of the 

 Clock, and I'l want nothing that a Fisher 

 should be furnished with." 



In the fifth edition Brandon and 

 Fletcher are not mentioned, and this 

 paragraph is altered thus : 



"And to that purpose I will go 

 with you either to Mr. Margrave who 

 dwells amongst the book-sellers in St. 

 Pauls Church-Yard, or to Mr. John Stubs, 

 near to the Swan in Golding-Lane ; they 

 be both honest men, and will fit an Angler 

 with what Tackling he lacks." 



At the end of the second part of the 

 fifth edition I find this advertisement : 



" Courteous Reader , 



"You may be pleas'd to take 

 notice, that at the Sign of the Three 

 Trouts in St. Paul's Church- Yard, on the 

 North side, you maj be fitted with all 

 sorts of the best Fishing Tackle, by 



" JOHN MARGRAVE."

 been invaluable to Margrave ; it reads as 

 if drawn up by Walton, who, by the way, 

 has this interesting marginal note on page
