BULLETIN OF THE UNITED STATES FISH COMMISSION. 239 
about June 1 the vessel was headed for that place and anchored off the 
Fish Commission wharf at 1.30 p. m. Later in the evening the vessel 
was hauled alongside of the wharf. 
During the day (June 1) we landed the collections made on the cruise 
and prepared them for shipment to Washington ; also put ashore some 
nets and other apparatus for storage in the Fish Commission building. 
Took on board halibut trawls and buoys, to be used on the contemplated 
trip to the Gulf of St. Lawrence. 
June 2 the weather was rainy and foggy. 4^t 10.30 a. m. hauled out 
into the stream and anchored. 
My orders directed me to report at Gloucester after landing the ma- 
terial collected on the cruise. Accordingly got under way at 8 a. m. 
on June 3, with the wind from south by west to southwest by south blow- 
ing a moderate to fresh breeze. Passed the Highlands of Cape Cod and 
hove to at 11 p. m. ; weather very foggy. The fog cleared at 2 a. m. on 
June 4, and we continued our course for Gloucester, where we anchored 
at 4.40 a. m.
