The duck shooting season opened
on Saturday last. The marshes Of
Rroadkiln and Prime Hook Necks
we're alive with boys and men with
an sorts and conditions of fire arms
and they used them as long as their
ammunition lasted. Not many ducks
we're killed, because of the incessant
and. in most cases, useless firing. One
Gunner told the writer that he saw a
number of men shoot at ducks that
we're at least 800 yards in the air, and
that the fight of a duck across the
marshes was plainly readable by the
aash and reports of guns fOl Oiles.
This turning loose of hundreus OF gun
uers on one day will drive the ducks
from these marshes, is feared by local
sportsmen.
