Of Interest to Fishermen,

Upon the supreme courts decision as
to whether Wotton's pond in Union is
a natural or artificial body of water
largely depends the fate of Leroy Hard
ing of Warren, who is accused of poach-
ing upon the trout streams known as
Quiggle, Meadow Mountain and Hem
ingway brooks, which have been closed
by the State, as tributaries to CraW
ford'S pond.
Mr.. Harding admits having fished
Quiggle brook, but puts up the defence
that it was not legally posted and Is Il
tributary of Wotton's pond. The State,
represented by Warden Walter 7. Neal,
asserts that the latter body of water
is purely a mill pond.
'Should the courts decide that it was
a natural pond" said Warden Neal, 'it
would be equivalent to saying that
there is hardly brook in Maine which
is legally closed"
Mr. Harding was fined $40 and costs
in each of three warrants, making a
total expense of about $3.50. He appeal
ed and was placed under bonds in the
sum of 5000. Over score of promi-
nent Knox county fishermen attended
the hearing.

engaged in continual broils, breaking
out sometimes into such violence that
bloodshed ensued. The townspeople,
however, appear to have had the best
Of 1t, and so again and again their an

approximately two horsepower of me-

be transformed into mechanical or

the next half century will see some
solution thereof. either chemical or
otherwise. seems likely.-H. s. Pritch-
