by the crew.
Capt. Babbitt says II was one OF the
most amusing fights he ever witnessed.
The outcome was highly satisfactory to
the crew. for the pig finally dispatched
the shark.
While the shark was threshing around
furiously on deck Dennis ventured too
near. The shark seized him by the lower
jaw, but Dennis also had a firm hold
on the sharks lower jaw. and finally tore
ii off, so Capt Babbitt says.
