Human Hand Found in Shark.—
Fishermen at North Fremantle found a human hand inside an eight-foot tiger shark caught on a set line. The hand resembled that of a woman or youth. A police doctor could not say whether the shark had bitten the hand from a live or dead person, but it is thought that the hand might be that of one of two youths who disappeared a fortnight ago.
