of Captain Aaron

Those who go down to the sea and
fish for lobsters have plenty of good
hard work and meet with many rover-
see and loss of gear.
Heavy storms oft times break their
pots when set in shallow water. the
wheels of the different steamer and
launches got caught in the roopoa that
hold the buoys and out the rope. and
the trap is lost to the fisherman.
it has happened that pleasure portion
have at times thought it no harm to
pull it pot or two and tube It "Incas of
’iobntors,“ and the fishermen complain
‘that unscrupulous ones among their
own- class pull their fellow ilshormou' s
' pots and steal the fruits of their bald
labor. _
This is generally done in tho the
night or In leggy weather, and it is
‘ hard to catch the parties.
Not long since Aaron stovons, of “0*

of their pets in the fog and found that
Frank Burden. who lives in o entail
cabin in Scotch (love. was liters o-
foro him. and had his (Slovene) lobster
trap in his boat. with the evident in‘
tontlon of helping himself to the catch

tion which gives the jury the right to
consider the question of dependency
it is expected that this report will be

next week. ,_
In some states the question of phy-
sical pain and enduring which enters
in the question of damages in this
state is eliminated. The committee
did not feel inclined to take such a
long step at one time and therefore
relented the question of dependency

At the present time when a man
