| Summary: | seal n Seal nets are made of very strong hemped cord, although not more than the twelfth part of an inch thick. The meshes are eight inches square, and will admit the head and neck of the seal. Some nets are more than 100 fathoms long, by 10 fathoms wide; and several nets, placed together as advantageously as possible for the purpose of taking seals when they are migrating in herds in the spring or in the autumn, form what the fishermen call a set of net.
