Time a.m. 



7 inches, and another and an- 

 other, grayish skin. Can see 

 whole outhne but not from 

 own lateral lights. 



1^00 10.40.31 10.40.5^ Many worms, can see lights on 



window glass, as many as 50. 



1620 10.41 Another light. Big fish after 2 



others, the pursuer is 3 or 4 

 times larger. Now another 

 pale lemon yellow light. 

 Think it is a shrimp. 



1680 10.41.45 Saw shrimp sending out light, 



when near glass, they turned 

 sideways as they hit and I 

 saw them, in their own lights, 

 send sparks out like skyrock- 

 ets. This explains much that 

 has puzzled me, and is the big- 

 gest discovery yet. 



1700 10.42.1^ 10.42.41 Faint glow of light on window 



ledge. 



1770 No telephone hose has slipped in. 



1790 Argyropelecus. 



1800 10.44.10 10.45.04 Life getting thicker. 



Here's a fish with nothing but 

 teeth illumined, mouth i inch 

 across, does not close com- 

 pletely. Teeth are lighted 

 from the bottom upward with 

 black between. 



1 8 10 10.45.20 Siphonophore, 6 to 8 inches, 



with all net-work lighted up 

 and oval in shape. Now a co- 

 pepod which looks like a fish's 

 light, but is not luminous.
