"THERE NEVER WAS SUCH A FISH - OR SUCH A FISHERMAN ..."
BAX
(Clifford, 1886-1962, Playwright and Author)
Autograph Letter Signed to 'My dear Roughie'
saying that "Some nights ago Peter gave me a section of a salmon. It is, really, the most magical salmon that any man has ever caught since the time of the Arabian Nights, and I send you my thanks for it and my wish that you may receive 'more power to your elbow'. It is magical, I say, for although I have eaten nothing else for the last three days, it keeps on increasing in size. Last night I gave some twenty pounds of it to my wife, who was overjoyed, and lo and behold! when it reappeared on my luncheon-table, just now, it is twice the size that it was when I took it away from Peter's.
