Journal Entry

May 19, 1845 ~ Monday

19th I walked with Br Allen & Walker 10 miles
to a creek to fishing trout & salmon with the
fly they caught three in about 5 minutes, when
an officer came & informed them it was against
the law & if they continued to fish they would
be under £5 pounds fine so we all left the
ground & returned home & got our walk for
our pains & three small salmon fry ie young
salmon weigh about one ounce each we had
them fryed for our dinner & I eat 2 of them
we then walked back to Carlise & I was
weary & spent the night at Br Bells 20 miles
