Excerpt from The Economic Condition of Fishermen
I feel it almost presumptuous in me to read a paper before this Congress of Specialists, on topics nearly akin to those on which His Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh contributed an excellent and valuable address. Nevertheless, having taken some part in suggesting to the Committee the formation of a special class in this Exhibition illustrative Of the Economic Condition of Fishermen, and written a short preface for the same in the Catalogue, I have gladly responded to the invitation of the Executive Committee, and now venture to lay before you a few observations on this important subject.

International Fisheries Exhibition. LONDON, 1883. Conference on Friday, June 22, 1883, The chair was taken at 2o clock by Sir Allen Young. THE ECONOMIC CONDITION OF FISHERMEN. I. I ntroductory. I FEEL it almost presumptuous in me to read a paper before this Congress of Specialists, on topics nearly akin to those on which His Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh contributed an excellent and valuable address. Nevertheless, having taken some part in suggesting to the Committee the formation of a special class in this Exhibition illustrative of the Economic Condition of Fishermen, and written a short preface for the same in the Catalogue, I have gladly responded to the invitation of the Executive Committee, and now venture to lay before you a few observations on this important subject. It is much to be desired that this Exhibition, which, we trust, will benefit the fisheries not only of this country, but of the world, may likewise promote the welfare of the fishermen the providers, if not the producers, of a much needed addition of our supply of food. There is a community of interest between the producer and the consumer.
