Bethel Church Fall Meeting and Sea Creature Tale
A Bethel Presbytery fall meeting is noted amid a long sea yarn from the steamship Indrasamba. A 27 foot python and a royal Bengal tiger captivate mariners after a voyage from Singapore and Yokohama, with the tiger claiming a posthumous dinner and the basin of the ship’s decks roiling in storms.
