difficult for me to attend to them
while oppressed with suffering. The
way in which / found relief eventually

determine exactly what sort of sea
monster it is. He was about two
miles from Boon Island when he felt
a tug on his 6-pound line. He com
menced to pull in, but found that he
had tackled hard job, He finally
got the monster into the boat and
brought it in. The fish is of muddy
color, over feet long, and with a
head that is fully three-quarters of a
yard wide at the widest part. 1t has
a mouth resembling that of a shark
and small teeth. The teeth are not
hard, as would naturally be expected
in q fish of this size. Its eyes are
about as big round as an old fashioned
copper cent. The fish weighs 200
pounds. One of the strangest things
about the fish is the apparent absence
of bones.-Kennebec Journal.
