SAILING OVER A WHALE.
Invercargill, December 14,
The cutter Kent, when crossing Foveaux Strait, from Stewart Island to Bluff on Saturday, was thrown on her beam ends and narrowly escaped being capsized. The crew were at first puzzled to account for the occurrence, but the mystery was explained by the appearance of a large whale astern of the vessel. It is surmised that the cutter sailed over the monster.
