Captain Kennedy Tells Of Thrilling
Experience off ThlmbIe Shall.
MONSTER EVIDENTLY VERY HUNGRY
Scrap Fish Aboard the Schooner Eva
May Supposed to Have Been Object
Of Attack Which Gave Crew Bad
Fright.

Capt. w. s. Kennard, skipper OF the
two masted schooner Eve Alice, which
,came into Hampton creek from MID
fdlesex county yesterday morning. tells
| OF a thrilling encounter his vessel had
| with a mammoth black whale between
3 and 6 o'clock yesterday morning.
| Capt Kennard was bringing a load
Of fish scrap To fertilizer factory.
When nearing Thimble lighthouse,
| Capt Kennard SAYS, he noticed an OBJ
| ject in the channel. which had the
appearance of a submarine torpedo
boat, and he became alarmed lest his
vessel would be cut down by the
| stranger. The supposed vessel stood
! eight feet out OF the water. but had no
lights and this puzzled Capt. Kennard
| and his crew.
Finally by changing course in a
short time the Eva Alice came along
side of the object and to the sur
prise of the crew the whale almost
| Strengthened himself into the air and
! snorted water over the deck of the
vessel
Capt. Kennard declares that the
! whale was fully 40 feet long. being
much longer than his fifty-foot
schooner. Realizing the danger of the
situation. Capt. Kennard whipped
around and just as he cleared the
monster leviathan. the whale smack
ed at the little vessel with his big
tale. barely missing the stern. Capt.
Kennard then whipped the vessel
back toward shore, and when he
again came to the channel a distance
OF fully 1000 yard further down the
whale was waiting the coming of the
schooner. Here more manoeuyering
occurred and on this occasion Capt.
Kennard declares that he and his
crew almost gave up the fight. for it
seemed absolutely certain that the
schooner. Again whipping toward
shore. the schooner got away without
damage.
II was nearly an hour before the
schooner came back to the channel,
but the whale was still in it's course.
Now II was daylight and the captain
and his crew got fine view of their
enemy. Capt Kennard declares that
the whale followed them to a point
within half mile of Old Point wharf.
Il have been doing the water for
many years." declared Capt. Kennard
to the Daily Press correspondent in
relating his experience. but this is
the greatest fright that I have ever
experienced. The whale evidently
was hungry and the scent of the fish
scrap is what attracted him to the
schooner. ! firmly believe that had
not been so quick in righting about
the Eva Alice would have been crush
ed by the whale. No joking. the situa-
ton was serious and do not desire
such an experience soon again.
II will be remembered that several
vessels have reported a school OF
whales near the Virginia capes and
two Of the immense ones have been
found dead on the beach Of this Sec
ton.
