Not the Present Law.

Eds. Record Union: l see that q Jury
in Solano County has acquitted some
persons charged with trespassing on
marsh lands leased by one of the gun
shooting clubs near Suisun. Can you in
form me under what provision OF the
present game law the action was brought?
SPORTSMAN.
[Answer-It was not brought under
any provision of the present game law.
The case to which you refer was an ac-
ton brought last year and which had
been hanging fire in the courts. The
present law declares that anyone may
hunt over salt water marsh lands. There
has been some talk OF the clubs holding
leases on the Suisun marshes testing this
provision, but no such case has yet
reached the courts.
