LARGE fish weighing about Bewt., has been caught by salmon fishermen

employed on Dornoch beach. The fishermen are employed by Mr. Paterson. Mr. Hugh Ross, the foreman, stated that when the huge Osh crashed into the land net he and lys three companions ran to the spot. They were surprised to see the size of the fish whose body re- sembles the fore part of a large fish cut off. The tall is circular and separated, the mouth is small, there are two fins, and the eyes are slightly larger than Д half-crown. It is thought that the fish is a species of North Atlantic sunfish.
