Of three Of our citizens, who started on what they
termed ga fishing frolic" down river, went to
Georgetown TO take passage on wood boat bound
TO the Eastern Shore, Of what State, MARYLAND or
arrangements, however, were not very extensive,
consulting principally Of large jug ana TIN
bucket. To their astonishment, however, they
discovered at Georg etown that though the boat
with her crew could clear out, there was hitch
about their being permitted to go as passengers,
even for piscatery purposes. Perhaps the author
tiles suspected they might be fishers OF men rather
than Of fish, the more especially as one OF them
has three sons In Dixie; and the Others have been
suspected Of entertaining no particular aversion
for the rebels.
