On June 28th I met Geo. E. Howe and 

 W. D. Merrill, of Boston, at Mike Marrs' 

 camps, on Indian pond. We found the fish- 

 ing fair, but not so good as usual, owing 

 to the high water. We made 2 trips up the 

 West outlet, catching 15 trout the first and 

 10 the last trip. The largest fish weighed 2 

 pounds. We also made a trip to Hog Eddy, 

 where we caught 15 trout, the largest 

 weighing 2 J / 2 pounds. 



We saw 18 deer on this trip. One morn- 

 ing, as we were going down the pond, we 

 saw a doe with her fawn. It was sug- 

 gested that we see how_close we could get. 

 The boat was paddled within 30 feet before 

 they saw us. It was the finest sight I ever 

 saw. G. C. Jones, Carritunk, Me. 



A new kind of trout food was found here 

 the other day, by Mr. W. W. Babcock, of 

 this place. While fishing in the East fork 

 of the Clearwater river, in Deerlodge 

 County, Mont., he caught 15 large trout. 

 The 2 largest weighed about 2.y 2 pounds 

 each and were what might be called 

 portly. Air. B. thought he would see what 

 they had found to eat ; to fill themselves out 

 so. On opening them he found in one a 

 field mouse, and in the other a garter snake 

 20^ inches long. This is the first time I 

 ever heard of a fish having eaten a snake. 



I should like to hear, through Recrea- 

 tion, if snake eating fish are common.
