SIR EDMUND W. HEAD; BARONET, 

 ©toijEtnor Btnttal, 



&c. &c. &c. 



tn tte Compilation of this -work I haVe been sustained by tixA 

 reflection of the honor Conferred, in the permission accorded md 

 io dedicate to Tour Excellency this little rolume. 



There are te^ phases in which to view the question of the 

 protection of the Salmon I'isheries of which Your Excellency is 

 not already cognizant. 



Tour Excellency's practical knowledge of the habits of the 

 Salmon tribe, and of the la^s that are necessary for their pre- 

 servation, wUl justify the hope, that the Salmon Fisheries of this 

 ProTince will receive that attention at Tour Excellency's hands 

 Which the importance of the subject merits. 



I would desire to express my sense of Tour Excellency's 

 kindness, 



And beg to subscribe myself 



Tour Excellency's 



Most obedient 



Huinble servant, 



THE AUTHOR.
