MOOSE-HUNTING, 2 SALMON-FISHING I S AND OTHER SKETCHES OF SPORT PRINTED BY WlLLIAM CLOWES AND SONS, LIMITED, LONDON AND BECCLES vi NOTE is like listening to the stories of a genial companion when out on a sporting expedition. As I think it is quite possible that a second edition may be called for, I shall be very glad to receive, on behalf of the author, the notes of rod and gun sportsmen who may know, as they are at present, the hunting and shooting districts and rivers referred to in this work. Our author certainly had grand sport, and although it cannot be so good as formerly, let us hope there is still game enough left to be worth going for. The descriptions of salmon-fishing make one wonder what it mould be like if it was properly preserved. ST. DUNSTANS HOUSE, FETTER LAKE, LONDON, E.C., Pebrzcccry, 1902. R. B. MARSTON, ED.
