Excerpt from Some Piscatorial Problems Idly Considered
There is nothing pretentious - I hope - in this little book. To tell the truth it is the fruit of the enforced leisure of a long convalescence during which all labour of a robust type was forbidden me. With such energy as I could command I amused myself with revising and stitching together in book form a selection of articles from the series which I have contributed to "The Glasgow Herald" during the past few years. I had hopes too that in their present shape these articles might reach many friends scattered abroad who had not access to them on their first appearance. It is unnecessary to add that my scheme has received the kind approval of the editor of the journal referred to.
I have to thank my friend, the Rev. Alex. Slater Dunlop, B.D., Minister of Luss, for his revision of the proof sheets.
