Hon. a. I. Brown, deputy secretary
Of state. who is passing the summer
DAYS outside Of business hours ut Cob
bosscecontee. is q devout disciple Of ey-
crything piacatorial and has devoted
not n title time to looking up the rec
ord Of the lake as a fishing ground. His
research has been very thorough and
ne has succeeded in unearthing the
somewhat remarkable fact that as far
rs Official records 60. but one fish has
been taken from the waters of the
lake. and that was 1S years ago. The
exact date Of the catch has not been
learned. but sometime during the year
1887 one of the good citizens of the
town of Manchester caught a hornpout
weighing II ounces. and the fact was
duly recorded in the books of the town
clerk. This is said to be the only entry
Of the kind to be found in the book
ana the gentleman quoted above is of
the opinion that the only conclusion to
he drawn is that many Of the highly
colored reports which have been circu-
lated regarding the catches Of recent
years, have been decidedly fishy.
