A Seine that is a Seine.

A Stony Point (Fairfax County) letter says: “Large crowds daily witness the landing at this place of the largest seine in the waters of the Potomac. It is owned by Capt. Wm. Knight, and is said to be eight miles in length. It is hauled ashore by a twenty-horse-power engine, and requires between seventy-five and eighty men additional to fish it.” Fredricburg Star.
