To T. H. B., ESQ. 

 ESTEEMED FRIEND, 



In compliance with yonr desire, and at the solicitation 

 of several kind friends, I am induced to attempt laying down a few 

 observations, the result of long experience in Fly-Fishing ; more especially 

 in that department of the " gentle art " which relates to Grayling or 

 Umber. 



Should any information I may be able to give, add to your 

 previous knowledge, or contribute to your future pleasure, I shall be 

 highly gratified. 



Yours truly, 



J. JACKSON.
