Reasons humbly offered for the Bill for preservation 



of the fishery of the River Thames, and for regulating the 

 Company of Fishermen, (n. d.) s. sh. fol. 



[ This is one of the reasons : " That the said river has for some 

 years back been so plentifully stored that it furnished the Cities of 

 London and \Vestminster with all sorts of fish at cheap rates, 

 especially salmon, which then was fourpence and sixpence a pound, 

 but now seldom cheaper than three or four shillings."] 



Rules, orders and ordinances. See page 207.
