““Bishop on "At the Fishhouses" At the last minute, after I’d had a chance to do a little research in Cape Breton, I found I’d said codfish scales once when it should have been herring scales. I hope they corrected it all right. 2 Quite a few lines of "At the Fishhouses" came to me in a dream, and the scene— which was real enough, I’d recently been there—but the old man and the conversation, etc., were all in a later dream””
