He allowed the subject to lapse and began telling her about the ledges on which the rock cod and tautog schooled; where bluefish might be caught on the line, and snappers in the channels going into the Haven.
"I could make a fine caricature of them in the shapes of fishes, dorys, flounders, sharks, and snappers, all dancing a saraband!"

After dinner Mrs. Ladd said, "What would you boys like to do? Would you like to drive around the city and see New York?
Annette had distinguished herself by catching one small shark, and had immediately ceased to fish and devoted her attention to her fisherman and his line.
