,es were and that fool Jack was sit
ting there with a bunch OF fellows all
laughing like hyenas. l picked UP my
clothes and out Jumped q ish and
good night! ! new right through the
air for 10 feet Talk about scared
but when ! get Jack I'll teach him a
lesson. II was. only a little weak fish
but I was seeing so many things Of
the sea that Il scared the dickens out
Of me. He stayed out by the light
and caught about Ave or SIX weak fish
with an old butterfly net he found
on the shoals and brought them back
in to show US n shark.
But we are not the only one tina.
are afraid Of the water, everyone
down here stays on shore and wishes
he had a bath tub along. Everytimt
q fellow is seen with a bathing sui
and someone yells SHARK" that gem
with the bathing suit Immediately
drops It like a red.hot poker. Sharks
haven't done any damage around here
and | think they're all q bluff. DOM
forget to come down this summer and
bring along some poison for Jack.
Sincerely.
JEFF.
