Some of the streams in F'airmount
Park are inhabited by goldfish. Where
they came from nobody knows. but

descended from some goldfish thrown
into the stream by nearby residents
who had tired Of them as pets. 1t is
not generally known either that the
goldfish is a species of carp. With All

Of that disreputable fish.

and healthy-rathCr surprising to such
