ermen prohibited from freluenting colonial
ports or harbors for any other purposes than for
shelter, repairing damages purchasing wood,
and obtaining water, such prohibition
will not be enforced during the present
season, that they will be allowed to enter
Canadian ports for the purposes OF trade and of
transhipping fish and procuring supplies; that they
will not be prevented from fishing outside OF the
three mile limit within bays, the mouths of which
more than six miles wide. Sir Edward Thorn

hope however, that citizens OF the United States
will on their part contribute to the prevention of
untmely collisions by refraining from encro achng
for the purpose OF fishing, upon these waters from
which, by the treaty of 1918 and by laws of Great
Britain and Canada, they are excluded until the
legislation for insurinp to them the privileges and
tmmunties agreed upon by the treaty of the sth of
May 1871, shall have been carried out.
