Synopsis

Excerpt from An Inquiry Into the Legislation, Control, and Improvement of the Salmon and Sea Fisheries of Ireland

With reference to the latter question, it is of course to he wished that Irish fishermen were independent of assistance; but whatever is likely to prove of service to them, we may hope will be accorded.

With respect to the first, I may state, that since leaving England I have had much insight into the practical operation of the Law, - during a residence of nine years on the river Slaney, - as well as in the course of experience formed on the bench, - and also as secretary to a Fishery Protection Society, after the passing of the Act of 1842, and as a conservator for the Wexford districts under the recent Act.

Not being an angler, or connected with fisheries, I may claim to be exempt from advocating any particular interest.
