Interview with Mr. Maiden, manager of the cold-storage plant: 
The building itself is about 30x30 feet; the sharp-freezing room is 
about 10xl4feet , with a capacity of perhaps 6000 lbs; the cold-storage 
room is 15x15x12 feet; a Fairbanks -Morse gas-engine of 15 II. P. has 
been installed. 
Mr. Maiden contemplates buying the Daisy for $5000.00; the boat 
has not done much in deep water, but he thought she might do well, with 
a good man in command. 
Boats can get in and out of the harbor without any trouble, during 
six months of the year. 
Daring the summer, the fish are inside, in the shoal -water, anff 
as many as 70 in one day have been caught with hand-lines.

The "Ollie S.", Captain Garner, will be ready in about ten days; 
Capt. Garner takes out parties, for which he charges at the rate of 
$1.00 per diem for each person. He i 3 considered a good fisherman, but 
in my opinion he does not know the least thing about the business; this 
makes no difference, however, as there are not fish enough to supply 
the local market.
