dry aBy night or in wet weather, the fish was made up into "faggots," four or five fish with the skin side up and a broad fish on top. When it was well dried it was put into a "press-pile," where the salt sweated out leaving the fish looking white. After one more day of drying on the ground, it was finally stacked into a "dry pile" and there it remained until the ship was ready to sail, when the cod was weighted and carried on board.
