FISHING

AS a rule the best weakfish are
caught before dawn and after dusk.
! The largest fish do not habitually run
into shallow bays and inlets until
after dark. This is why night fishing
is popular among anglers fishing foi
t~ide-runners. The best time to take
striped bass is before sun up and after
sunset, when they are found in water
hardly deep enough to hide them
Sen bass and ~blackfsh will not bite
at-night and bluefish is also a day
feeding fish although they have been
known to take a hook after shutdown.
While two net fishermen, Mundy
Brothers & Hunt, of South Amboy.
were hauling in their seine neal the
entrance to C~heesequake Greek, Tues
day afternoon, of this week, they en-
shared three sharks, not extremely
large, but sharks nevertheless. They
saw the trio among the other fishes,
but, despite the fishermen's best
efforts, the sharks got away. They
toro the net in several places. Tive
good sized turtles were secured in the
same haul, which was witnessed by a
sailing party, of four young men, from
this city.
Drs. A. H. Dundon, D. O. Adams,
J. Hervey Buchanan, @. r. Theirs

Emabrugh and Mr.. Smith, all of

trip on Raritan bay Wednesday. Tie

three hours on the water a large mess
of weakish and founders was caught.

the run of wenkfisll has eve been

OBITUARY.
FRED II. LORD.


Fred Fl. Lord, assistant postmaster OF
Ellsworth since April, 1887, died at his
home In this city Sunday noon, aged
forty.three years, ten months and two
days.
Although not unexpected, the an
nouncement of his death came as shock
to this community, and cast gloom OF
sadness over the entire city. For perhaps
no individual has come in such close con-
tact with the public, as, by reason of the
position he held, he necessarily did.
And 1t would be hard to conceive OF
ones filling the position with greater sat
isfaction. Kind, patient, obIiging, he
was an ideal public servant, and 1t is not
easy to d'ssoci,te him with the place he
had so long and so satisfactorily filed.
Mr.. Lord was born in New York city
on July 6, 1850. His father was the late
Capt. Charles Il. Lord, a master mariner
In bis early days the son accompanied his
father to sea, and made several long
foreign voyages. Some twenty five years
ago he became clerk In the general store
at West Sullivan of g. W. Pettingill, who
was--and still is-postmaster at that
place. 1t was then that he acqui ed first
his taste for postoffice work.
For several seasons he was purser on the
old City OF Richmond, running between
Portland and Bar Harbor.
Later he was night clerk at the Bangor
house, when Mayor +. 0 Beal was the
proprietor. There he became extremely
popular with the travelling public, and
formed friendships that lasted through
life. He was widely known among those
engaged in the railway mail service.
He became assistant postmaster under
Arthur W. Greedy In 1887, and held the
Office continuously until his death, serv-
