on ttIl liutUrdS place. Gil IL greatly dis
tr,-Srd about II, and thinks lac can never
i.o a fishing again. II was the first rain
ell had ito lay the dust although he
prayed Tor rain for two months. 1t is Il
great denial To Gil To give up fishing, as he
rs very fond of il, and il very successful
wtIhaI. once upon "a time, while fishing
on Shual creek, with Capt. FlOurnOy, Gil
-ui tired of catching three pound trout at
the Wilson Factory dam, and halted his
hook with fifteen inch hOE-suClJcr, weigh
ing two CT three pounds, and let IL float
down under a bridge, where n big trout
stur, Il. He gave il plenty time TO bite,
although everybody told him to Jerk, GIL!
Jerk" I'll knew what he was about, aud
when the trout had thoroughly swallowed
the three pound hOg-suckeT, he jerked, and
then came the srVcTcst battle on record.
The old trout ran down stream, first 10 one
side ami then To- the other, until il COnclu-
drd to -u up, Uncle Rory Taylor hOlleTCd,
and Bob Moore threw down his board reel
and jumped into the river and caught hold
ct tgI'~ line The greatest excitement pre-
walled "u In" bank, but Gil was as cool as
the centre seed of a cucumber. The old
trout regretted II had come up the creek at
alt, aud started TO go down, but Gil politely
but irmly objected, and MIR. Trout jumped
siN feet straight into the air. My goodness!
what o, fish, Bob Moore helped him get IL
uut, aud then doubled up his fists, dIstcnd-
rtI as much aS possible, and pOked them
bnlh INTO the tTout'S mouth. 1t weighed
twelve pounds, and ever since that time
ellis fishing companions get all the choice
IuiuuuwS, for he always takes the big hog

as large as your arm, with the small end
nut OIL tackle strong enough To pull out a
