We have all heard many a fish
story. Recently a prominent Lewes
banker went fishing at the Break
water; he landed next morning with
a u pound trOut-even his wife
doesn't believe he caught it. But that
has nothing to do with the fish
story that DR.. Harry B Hickman
tells: A few days ago he and DR..
Davenport and DR.. Syl Bookhammer
went fishing out near the Point of
the Capes in their yacht and in one
hour and a half they landed 10S
trout, and just a short distance
from them some coast guards were
fishing and they didn't get even a
bite. This story sounds fishy but
nevertheless we have really found !
it to be a. true one.
