The last day of my visit was devoted to fish- ing. My bearded friend assumed command, and under his direction a fire was lit early in the morning beneath a large copper boiler; a certain proportion of the preserving powder was introduced in the water with which the copper A WILD PIG HUNT. 87 was filled, and the mixture allowed to boil, while we sallied forth to catch the fish. A net about one hundred yards long was produced by my host, and laid in the punt, together with two stakes to fasten th...e ends in the mud. We put off, and in a couple of hours had captured over a hundred fine mullet, and as these were sufiicient to fill the two tubs, the net was hauled up, and we returned to the shore. The fish were then packed in the tubs, the heads fitted on, and the preserving preparation poured over them through holes afterwards plugged with corks. The success of the day's fishing decided me to make an ofi*er for the property I had inspected, and I finally agreed to purchase — a reduction being made on account of the unfinished state of the house.
