It is agreed that the places designated by the commissioners appointed
under the first article of the treaty between the United States and
Great Britain concluded at Washington on the 5th of June, 1854, upon
the coasts of Her Britannic Majesty's dominions and the United States,
as places reserved from the common right of fishing under that treaty,
shall be regarded as in like manner reserved from the common right of
fishing under the preceding articles. In case any question should
arise between the Governments of the United States and of Her
Britannic Majesty as to the common right of fishing in places not thus
designated as reserved, it is agreed that a commission shall be
appointed to designate such places, and shall be constituted in the
same manner and have the same powers, duties, and authority as the
commission appointed under the said first article of the treaty of the
5th of June, 1854.
