SEA SERPENT

OFF BOSTON

BOSTON, May 25 (AP) – Captain Roy Marden of the Gloucester fishing schooner

Catherine Burke reported today that he sighted a sea serpent 20 miles east

of Boston lightship on May 18 as his vessel moved out to Georges Banks.

The monster was described by Captain Marden as about 50 feet in length, with

a head resembling that of a horse, a black smooth body and a tail like that

of a shark. It moved at a speed of about seven miles an hour, he said.

Thanks to Jerome Clark.

Note: This is an interesting but brief account of a sighting of an unknown marine animal
or fish near Boston from 1931 but is an interesting story and report nonetheless.

Thanks and credit goes to Loren Coleman and his site Cryptomundo as well as Jerome Clark
for this reporting this story.
