It w r as caught upon the Dogger Bank. It had met with fome

which part a confiderable collection of air had taken place, fo

It was feventeen feet long, and was brought to St. George’s 
Fields, where I purchafed it. The dorfal fin having been cut 
off clofe to the back, is therefore only marked by a dotted line.
