He caught him and he could have landed him, he should have landed him but he didn't land him. That was it. Yes, I remember Kernin and Morse had a slight discussion about it oh, perfectly amicable as to whether Morse had fumbled with the net or whether Kernin the whole argument was perfectly friendly had made an ass of himself by not "striking" soon enough.
In fact he guarantees to haul the fish in. Kernin says that more than once in Lake Rosseau he has played a fish for over half an hour. I forget now why he stopped; I think the fish quit playing. I have heard Kernin and Jones argue this question of their two rods, as to which rod can best pull in the fish, for half an hour. Others may have heard the same question debated.
I had imagined he practically lived on the water. And Colonel Morse and Kernin, I was amazed to find, hadn't been out for twelve years, not since the day so it came out in conversation when they went out together in Lake Rosseau and Kernin landed a perfect monster, a regular corker, five pounds and a half, they said; or no, I don't think he landed him. No, I remember, he didn't land him.
And Morse said he'd never forget seeing poor old Kernin yanking his line first this way and then that and not knowing where to try to haul it. It made him laugh to look back at it. They might have gone on laughing for quite a time, but Charlie Jones interrupted by saying that in his opinion a landing net is a piece of darned foolishness. Here Popley agrees with him.
P. Bayhi captain of police, in the N.O. "Bee," June 9, 1838. "Detained at the police jail, the negro wench Myra has several marks of lashing, and has irons on her feet." Mr. Charles Kernin, parish of Jefferson, Louisiana, in the N.O. "Bee," August 11, 1837. "Ranaway, Betsey when she left she had on her neck an iron collar."
The wheat's kernin' somethin' cruel fine I awnly wish theer was more of it an' the sheep an' cattle's in braave kelter likewise. Then the orchard do promise no worse. I never seed such a shaw of russets an' of quarantines 'pon they old trees afore." "'Tis a fine, fair season." "Why, so I say a 'mazin' summer thus far but what's the reason o't?
