fine for game law infractions
in the history of the county
when he ruled three hunters
must each pay $500 or serve
45 days in Jail for shooting a
deer on a Potomac river is

The fines were the second larg-
est in the state - a man was
fined $1750 several weeks ago
for selling deer meat in Garrett
County.
Judge Diamond heard Federal
Game Warden Frank II. Longfel-
low testify that he saw the hunt
ers shoot a small buck on Big
Island, between SWANS Lock and
Violet's Lock December 81.
Longfellow, who was hunting
ducks, said he observed the trio
track the wounded deer, kill II
and dress it out. He notified
them of their arrest but did not
take them or their shotguns in
to custody because the river was
high and he feared capsizing of
the party's small boat.
The trio pleaded guilty to kill
ing deer during a closed season
and to hunting without a proper
license.
