Mr. J. W. MARTIN.
In the year but no,Mr. J. W. Martin was born ;
brother angler away. In spite of theI must not give a
vicissitudes of life which include such varied occupationsa
as canal-boat horse-driver, bricklayer's labourer, and'
Martin, the sole support of a widowedblacksmith, Mr.
mother (hats ofE to him managed to keep alive the keen!),
love of angling which was born in him, and certainly no
one ever more careful not to miss an opportunity ofwas
"wetting a line." His book, "The Nottingham Style,"
published by Sampson Low and Co., was his first
"literary effort, under the nom de plume of Trent
Otter." A good start truly, but since that time he has
'*others, Roach, Rudd, and Bream Fishing," which shows
the practical angler on every page. His last book,
*' Pike and Perch i'ishing," is noticed in another column,
butnow that Mr. Martin has started as a tackle maker in
London, having taken the old-established business of Mrs.
Price, of Seymour-street, Euston-road, the indisputable
evidence his books give of his practical experience should
help him in his newer venture, in which I, for one, wish
him the best of success,
