SOUTH SIDE FISHING

There would probably be 80 dories used for fishing along

the shoreline from Red Point to North River. The fish were hand- barrowed from the dory and emptied into a box called a "kit". Then they were gutted and thrown up on a splitting table

where the backbone was removed. The fish were slid into a tub of water, washed, and hand-barrowed again to the fish house and salted in punchions. After being left here for about two weeks they were spread on flakes to dry. The fish were laid face up.

Hand—barrow

was a box that would hold about 150 pounds of fish, with handles on each side and carried by two men.
