Curious However, Sought

Many Pictures Taken.

Slaughter Beach Wednesday be-
came the mecca of hundreds of
visitors-but they didn't stay long.
Whole families arrived by car to
view the spectacle Of section Of
dead whale-badly decomposed--
adrift in the water near the cottage
of r. G. Bernard III of Milford, and
then made dash for the wide open
spaces-and fresh air.
The whale was found Wednes-
day morning and 1t dispatched
its penetrating aroma over the
countryside a call for help was sent
to the Lewes Coast Guard Station.
The Coast Guard. however, was,
unable to undertake any operations
until late Wednesday, however 1t
was towed out to sea before dark.
Meanwhile owners and guests at
summer cottages hurriedly return
ed to their town homes and even
skunks were rumored to be desert
ing the area. The tell-tale aroma
was reported by farm families in
the Slaughter Neck section two and
three miles away.
The Coast Guard said the whale
apparently had been in collision
with a ship. Part of the head was
missing and only a section of the
/ body, about 30 feet long, was wash
ed up near the beach. Waterman
estimated the whole whale had be-
en- so to 60 feet in length.
The unwelcome visitor was first
sighted about $3.50 a. m. The news
spread like wildfire and autos from
all parts of Kent and Sussex Coun-
ties poured into the community.
Dozens of cameras also were in
evidence as amateur photographers
took "shots" for their albums. How
ever, there was little inducement
to linger especially when the wind
changed, sending waves of whale
perfume" into the nostr.ls Of the
sightseers.

only four or five whales have beer
reported in Delaware Bay in the
past 20 years.
