s.airnners the Prey of Eeie.

A remarkable story of the seizure of swimmers by eels comes from New Zealand. A stream in New Zealand was a favorte bathing place because the current was swift and strong Time after time the bather would be- gin to shriek and splash on the sur face, would disappear before help could reach him, and when his body had been found it had invariably been eat en by eels. The cause of the fatality remained shrouded in mystery, for a long time, but at length the true cause was discovered that whilst the swim mer was almost stationary in the rapid stream a huge eel would seize him by the foot or leg and drag him down be meath the surface.
