For a while it laemed pretty slow fishing, and Geoi-ge was about giving it up when ho oaugbt his line on what [he thought to be a log. A steady pull proved that it wasn't a log, but a fish, and then began a battl« royal. After considerable reeling aud fighting George was victorious aud pulled the speckled bnauty into the boat. Judging from the «ize of the tiah tli« ftght must have been a goo<l one, and it is likely the trout bad 1 to be killed with au axe.
