All History Recorded

Nature will be reported. All things

The planet, the pebble, goes attended

Perhaps the gentle reader would be

cOlonists spent his first day in New

After exchange of greetings with
Governor Endlcott of the Salem col.

good venison pasty and good beer, and
at night we returned to our ship.

Sea Eel q Menace

There is species of sea eel which
darts like lightning at human vic
tim and sinks its sharp teeth into an
arm or ankle. A man would be help
less against one of these creatures
were it not for trick familiar to the
South sea natives. In its lightning
like dive the eel gets any grip it can
and holds on. Then 1t waits for the
victim to weaken, when it will relax
its grip and try to get a more ad-
vantageous one. All the attacked
person has to do is to endure the pain
until the fish opens its mouth. Then,
If the man moves quickly enough, it is
possible to escape to the surface by
pushing the creature away.
