" Let's see how the case stands. I take a little wool and feather and
tying it in a particular manner upon a hook make an imitation of a fly;
then I throw it across the river and let it sweep around the stream with
a lively motion. This I have an undoubted right to do, for the river
belongs to me or my friend, but mark what follows. Up starts a monster
fish with his muderous jaws. It makes a dash at my little Andromeda.
Thus he is the agressor, not I; his intention is to commit murder. "
