Dr. Jago added that Mr. Jonathan Couch had forwarded, for 

 exhibition at this meeting, a drawing of a very rare fish, Aiisonia 

 Cuvieri, which had been thrown ashore alive, on a beach near Dod- 

 man Point, in the vicinity of Mevagissey. (Accompanying the 

 Drawing, was a description of the fish, which will be found in sub- 

 sequent pages of this Journal).

 perhaps its last seven words might be rendered : Fair play without

 guare wheg;" which was translated "Fair play is good play." — 

 Another silver hurling-ball, "with the date " 1743," in the possession 

 of Mrs. Couch of Penzance, also a daughter of the late Mr. Pearce, 

 bore an inscription in English, as follows : " The married men 

 against the young. The gift of John Sickler to the parish of
