“It is one of the improvements of the times ; it enables the poor man, with hardly anything, to go to work⟳ on his own⟳ resources, and with his boat and net to follow⟳ the fish⟳ as they travel⟳ from place⟳ to place⟳ in search⟳ of food or to spawn. In this pursuit the giller comes in contact⟳ with the seinehauler, and certainly encroaches upon his rights.”

“It is then thrown to the giller, who removes the gills and entrails and cuts a gash along the side containing the backbone, in order⟳ that the salt may the more readily penetrate the flesh.”

“This was done by the giller. We would no: try⟳ it if we could get⟳ out of it. It was too risky.”
