Excerpt from A National Fisheries Society When I was invited, before these Conferences began, to read a Paper on some question connected with the Fishing Industry, and suggested, as a subject, the proposal, which I have the honour to bring under your notice to-day, for the formation of a National Society which should take up and carry on permanently, and on an extended basis, the good work which this Exhibition is, for the time being, doing in promoting a practical knowledge of the Fisheries, and in fostering enterprise in their development, I little thought that my suggestion would have received, by anticipation, such influential support as was accorded to it in the Inaugural Address delivered by the distinguished gentleman under whom I have the honour to serve, and who then expressed the "confident belief... that in these Conferences we have the germ out of which, by due process of evolution, a society especially devoted to the promotion of the interests of the fisheries of these islands may spring."
