AN ECHO FROM POINT CHAUTAUQUA.

WHEN the cut glass men were the guests of H. C. Fry, early in July, word was brought in that a native had caught a muscalonge weighing eleven pounds, and a number went down to the landing to see it.

J. Howard Fry immediately offered its captor a tempting price, and secured the prize. A few minutes after the purchase Chas. Schuller took a snapshot of it, together with Mr. Fry still prouder possession, J. Howard, junior. By a coincidence the guests of the hotel were served muscalonge for dinner that same day, and some of them still think they were eating that fish.
