TWO IMMORTALS. 
“I KNOW a big fish by the swirl it makes when 
playing near the surface,” said the Haji. ‘‘This 
is a good one. I’m thinking.” It was undoubt¬ 
edly a strong fish, but he went again and again 
into the big pool under the cliffs where the blue 
rock pigeon breed at Sulphur Springs, and, 
hauling one foot after the other out of the deep 
mud of the bank on which I stood, little by 
little I strove to get back to firmer ground. 
Weaker and weaker became the rushes until 
the big mahseer rolled on his side in the shal¬ 
low water and the Haji waded out for him 
with the landing net. And then, all of a sud¬ 
den, despite my light, careful strain upon him, 
by one of those lamentable mischances against 
which no mortal is immune, out slipped the 
hook from his mouth and five strenuous 
minutes’ worth of my time darted back to deep 
water in evident surprise at his regained liberty. 
‘‘A gallant fish,” I said to the Haji, “he al¬ 
most deserved to get off.” “Twelve pounds if 
he was an ounce,” gasped the Haji. “God no 
doubt meant him to live.” 
And thus a good fish, too lightly hooked, 
added to the roll of the “immortals,” those fish, 
fowl or beasts that I have missed, when my 
shikaris—race of fatalists—have invariably pro¬ 
nounced “things immortal was never meant for 
death.” 
This was the fourth fish on a morning that 
would have been well enough in itself but for 
the disappointment that has been recorded 
above and the one that remains to be told. The 
other three fish, weighing just over four pounds, 
dangled on the stick that the Beloch lad who 
accompanied us, was carrying; and the day was 
still before us.
