200 THE COMPLETE ANGLER. PARTI. 



I should, by promise, speak next of the Salmon ; but 

 I will, by your favour, say a little of the Umber or Gray- 

 ling which is so like a Trout for his shape and feed- 

 ing, t hat I desire I may exercise your patience with a 

 short discourse of him ; and, then^ the next shall be of 

 the Salmon. [As the SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES of 

 Hawlins, when appended to the last word of a Chap* 

 ter, necessarily run, if long, under the following Chap- 

 ter, to which they have no relation; sometimes driving 

 other Notes out of their places, perplexing the Refer- 

 ences, and greatly obscuring the application of the 

 Supplementary Matter; the Editor has taken the 

 liberty to remove the mark of reference in some of 

 these cases, whenever he could jind, higher up in the 

 chapter, a passage with which the additional in- 

 structions seem to have a natural connection.] 



King Charles the Second, a Trout was taken in that river, near 

 Newbury, with a casting net which measured forty-five inches in 

 length.
