  Berks).

   Lock. 
  

  

  Cormorant. 
  — 
  I 
  saw 
  either 
  a 
  Cormorant 
  or 
  Shag 
  on 
  the 
  river 
  off 
  

   Great 
  Marlow 
  a 
  good 
  many 
  years 
  ago, 
  but 
  could 
  not 
  see 
  which 
  species 
  

   it 
  was, 
  as 
  it 
  was 
  in 
  a 
  very 
  thick 
  fog. 
  Magpie 
  Eyot 
  is, 
  I 
  believe, 
  

   reckoned 
  as 
  Bucks 
  (as 
  well 
  as 
  Medmenham 
  and 
  Marlow), 
  but 
  if 
  not, 
  

   it 
  would 
  be 
  Berks, 
  and 
  several 
  miles 
  from 
  Oxfordshire.

  PISCES. 
  

  

  Porbeagle 
  Shark 
  in 
  Killala 
  Bay. 
  — 
  On 
  Nov. 
  20th, 
  1903, 
  when 
  

   walking 
  along 
  the 
  Euniscrone 
  Sands, 
  I 
  found 
  two 
  of 
  these 
  fish 
  thrown 
  

   up 
  by 
  the 
  surf 
  ; 
  they 
  were 
  both 
  females. 
  The 
  largest 
  specimen 
  

   measured 
  8 
  ft. 
  1 
  in. 
  from 
  tip 
  of 
  snout 
  to 
  end 
  of 
  longest 
  lobe 
  of 
  tail, 
  

   and 
  the 
  second 
  about 
  6 
  in. 
  less. 
  On 
  inquiry, 
  I 
  learned 
  that 
  these 
  

   specimens 
  and 
  three 
  others 
  were 
  entangled 
  in 
  the 
  Herring-nets 
  a 
  few 
  

   nights 
  previously, 
  and 
  killed 
  by 
  the 
  fishermen.
