Miles of Dead Herring Smother Harbor Entrance
Seattle February 17. For the third time in a month a shoal of herring crowded into the Nantimo harbor entrance on Vancouver Island and died by the hundreds. The harbor bottom was covered three feet deep with carcasses as the tide receded, leaving the beach white. The event mystifies observers though it is said the second shoal was herded in by the current like sheep. Larger fish preyed on the smaller, and boats were lifted from the water by the sheer density of fish.
