Like Junius, I dedicate this little Book to The Public. I did not think, when I wrote it for my Sons,' away from the din and turmoil of London' (to be laid by for some future time), that I should so soon see it in print. This has been solely at the request of a friend who is not an angler. As I owe no man anything but love, I hope they will temper any observation they may perhaps make on it with the same virtue; and I remain, Their most obedient Servant, JAMES LOCKE. 119, REGENT STREET, LONDON. |
