875. In speaking of the fishing, for which you settle with Messrs. Hay in the beginning of the year, all your evidence has had regard to what is called the home or summer fishing?-Yes. 876. It has not had reference to the Faroe fishing-Not so much, so far as I know. 877. It is only with regard to the home fishing that you are bound to fish for them?-It is only with regard to it that I can speak, for I am not a Faroe fisherman. 878. Are the men in Burra free to ship for the Faroe fishing with any master they like?-I expect they are; but there are some of the men to be examined afterwards, who will be better witnesses on that subject than I can be. 879. The fish you take in the summer fishing are ling, cod, and haddocks?-Yes. There are plenty in the islands who fish herrings also. 880. But that is a distinct thing altogether from the summer fishing?-Yes. 881. The fishing you have been speaking to during all your examination has been the fishing for ling and cod?-I have been speaking of the whole home fishing of every kind, the herring fishing as well. 882. What do you catch in what you call the home fishing?-Ling, cod, and herrings. 883. And haddocks?-Yes; there are plenty of the men who catch haddocks also. 884. You spoke of taking some fish to Scalloway: were not these merely the small fish or haddocks?-Yes; the haddocks chiefly, and small cod. 885. Is that done at a particular season of the year?-Yes. 886. That is, when Messrs. Hay have not men at Burra to receive the large fish; or have they men there all the year round?-They have them all the year round. 887. Then why is it generally the smaller fish that you take at Scalloway?-I cannot give a particular statement why it is, except that the men get their account cleared off at Scalloway with these small fish. It is only haddocks that are taken there. The haddocks have never been taken in at their fish-curing station at Burra, so far as I know. 888. At what season of the year are these haddocks generally caught?-In winter. 889. Do they smoke the haddocks in Burra?-No; they never did that. 890. Their establishment there is only for curing the larger fish?- Yes. 891. Then, in order to get your haddocks smoked and cured, you must bring them to Scalloway, and deliver them at the store there?-Yes. 892. And that is the reason why you bring some of your fish to Scalloway?-It is. 893. Supposing you bring these fish there, is it still in your option to let them enter your general account, instead of getting goods for them at the time?-We can either take the value of them at the time in goods, or we can have them entered in our general account. 894. Have you ever asked, when bringing fish to Scalloway, to get the price of them in money?-Yes. 895. Have you asked for the whole price in money?-I don't remember that I ever asked to get the whole of it in that way. 896. Why?-Because, of course, I knew I would not get it.
