Whale Fight On The Mexican Described In Vivid Detail
The encounter occurred in the Biscay Sea aboard the Union steamer Mexican as a mighty sperm whale battled a jasper whale and a swordfish. The fight drew passengers to the bow, blood stained the water, and after fierce lashing the sperm whale died, leaving the sea a red panorama of life and death. Also noted: Mrs. Sarah Malloy of Cheyenne chosen as provisional elector by Wyoming Republicans as a milestone for women’s suffrage and political participation.
