TO
SOLOMON T. NICOLL, ESQ.
My dear Sir,
To you, in testimony of my friendship, I inscribe this little Volume.
On a pleasant morning in May last, I awoke from a piscatorial dream, haunted by the idea, that I must spend a portion of the approaching summer in the indulgence of my passion for angling. Relinquishing my editorial labours for a time, I performed a pilgrimage, which has resulted in the production of this Volume. I hope it may entertain those of my friends and the public, who have heretofore received my literary efforts with favour. The work will be found to contain a record of Adventures in the Valleys of the Hudson, St. Lawrence and St. John, and along some of the rivers of New England. Truly your friend, Charles Lanman.
NEW-YORK, 1847.
