To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
8l with both That this union cannot long subsist, I should be inclined to infer from one remarkable circum- stance, and it is a convincing proof of the rapid destruc- tion which the introduction of pike into a trout lake will occasion. Within a short distance of Castlebar there is a small bog-lake, called Derreens ; and ten years ago it was celebrated for its numerous and well- sized trout. Accidentally pike effected a passage into the Lough from the Minola river, and now the trout are extinct,... or, at least, none of them are caught or seen. Previous to the intrusion of the pike, half-a-dozen trout would be killed in an evening in Derreens, whose collective weight often amounted to twenty pounds. Indeed, few of the Mayo waters are secure from the encroachments of the pike. The lakes of Castlebar, I believe, still retain their ancient character ;* but I understand that pike have been latterly taken in the Turlough river, and of course they will soon appear in a lake which directly communicates with this stream.
