Book excerpt: Excerpt from The South Country Trout Streams I take this opportunity of heartily thanking the many anglers from Kent to Cornwall who have aided me in my endeavour to obtain trustworthy information concerning various south country trout streams; and in particular I must express my obligations to the Rev. William Awdry, of Ludgershall, Wiltshire, Dr. Comber, Colonel Robert Waller, Captain Beaumont, Mr. Nash, of Canterbury, the Rev. F. E. Freeman, the Rev. B. T. Thompson, the Rev. L. I. Procter, His Grace the Duke of Bedford, the Rev. T. Bentham, the Earl of Heytesbury, Colonel Mansel, Mr. H. S. Thomas (author of "The Rod in India"), Colonel Buller, and Mr. E. Goble, all of whom have been put to trouble on my behalf. I also desire to acknowledge the kind assistance of my friend Mr. C. E. Taylor. Two things have especially struck me in the course of my inquiries into the condition and the characteristics of our south country trout streams. First, the large, and, I am afraid, not decreasing, number of fine waters which are subjected to the most objectionable forms of pollution, and, secondly, the lowering of the springs of various chalk streams by water companies and the like.
