On the shelving SEBACABEA 165 granite rocks at the river's brink the house is built, surrounded by fruit trees. When I first visited the river, Seba belonged to a woodcutter named Allicock, who lived there with his wife, pretty little daughter, and sister-in-law. Mrs. Allicock was a white lady of Scotch descent, and a very handsome, dignified body she was. There was a deep pool in the river in front of the house, and this we used to draw with a seine on moon- light nights, landing at times a gr...eat number of strange and bright-hued fishes. One night, as we were hauling, paddling slowly in two boats, the seine felt very heavy, and we thought that we had made a fine haul of fish, when suddenly from the centre of the net arose a huge monster, black as ink against the moonlight, with great dark jaws extended into the air. With loud ex- clamations of terror, the Indians dropped the lines, and, with a sudden splash, the monster fell back into the deep. " Good heavens, Allicock ! what is that ?
