that there should be some restriction
upon Ice fishing, and al the people .sked
for was for . chance to catch p'c.erci
for their own use In their own families.
The commissioners, therefore, oy
virtue Of the authority vested 10 them oy
the Legislature, opened the fc'iowine
named lakes and ponds 70 Ice hshing TOT ,,
