HOWARD L. SMITH, BLOOMINGTON, ILL. 
I received my commission June 1. The rivers in this part of the State 
were then very high. From June 20 to July 4 the water fell rapidly and 
nearly all the fish went down to deeper water, except a few catfish and carp 
that remained in stagnant pools. 
This has been the poorest season we have ever had for fishing in this 
vicinity, owing to the unprecedented drought. I served seven days on board 
the “Illinois” in September and you will find a report from Deputy W. H. 
Brown, of Blue Island, contains my name. I have not made any arrests in 
this vicinity. Have investigated every rumor of any weight and have not. 
received a single formal complaint.
