found on Good Harbor Beach in a swamp, and was caught and killed Dy afarmer with a pitchfork. It was of a green color and about four feet long.The other was nothing but a rather large horse-mackerel. So easily thebean-stalk of a wonder scales the skies ! Old records tell us, more than once, of a sea-monster of the nature of aserpent. Penobscot Bay aspired to one in 1809. In 1689 the incredubusNew-Englanders heard of the existence of a sea-serpent or snake, that kyquoiled up like a cable on Cape Ann. A boat passing by, with Englishaboard and two Indians, they would have shot the serpent, but the Indiansdissuaded them, saying, that if he were not killed outright, they would allbe in danger of their lives.
