416 FIFTY YEARS', SALMON FISHING &c. 



The season was not remarkable for specially 

 big fish, though one of 28 pounds was secured by 

 Col. Whitehead. The total score was good, how- 

 ever, showing 387 salmon and a weight of 4,389 



pounds. 



Mr. John Manuel had to his credit 109 fish, 

 Mr. James Law 104, Col. Whitehead 8, Mr. 

 James Manuel 121, Mr. A. Paterson 31, and Mr. 

 J. A. Walker, 14. 



It should be mentioned, however, that Col. 

 Whitehead left the river on the 24th June, that 

 Messrs. A. Paterson and J. A. Walker only ar- 

 rived on the 8th July, and that Mr. James Man- 

 uel left on the 15th of that month. 



Mr. James Law killed 14 salmon on the 4th 

 July, and 10 each on two other days. 



Mr. James Manuel killed 17 fish on the 3rd 

 July, 13 on the 15th of June, and 10 on the 17th. 



Mr. John Manuel killed 10 salmon on each of 

 two different days. 



Long may the Lairds of the Godbout live to 

 enjoy the royal sport of matching their science 

 and skill against the cunning, agility and 

 strength of the kingly salmon of their far-famed 

 river; and may good fortune, health and appe- 

 tite \vait upon all who respond to the call of 

 ' 'Life and Sport on the North Shore' ' !
