Excerpt from The Mayor of Wind-Gap, Vol. 1 of 2

Wie these tiny creatures made their short eno trances and exits, the voracibus and gigantic trout was not an idle observer of some of their motions. He gulped themd in scores, either in their jour ney upwards, from the bottom of the river, into the regions of air, and while yet unfledged for their airy gambols, or when subsequently floating on the stream in their maternal pride, he broke the wa ter into circles, oi' each of which the centre was a little vortex, formed by him for their annihila t'uuz nor was the trout the only devourer of these tasty short-lived. Beings; the martin, the swallow, and the swift, glancing with arrowy speed through them in mid air, or over them on the river, snatched them from the very hey-day of their pastimes.
