LOCH NESS MONSTER

WOMAN SEES TWO LARGE HUMPS. CLAIM MADE BY MOTOR PARTY. The Loch Ness “monster” was seen by Mrs. Armour Hannay, of Dalgairn, near Cupar, Fife, in the course of a recent motor run along the loch side, on which she was accompanied by Major A. L. Collier, M.C., commanding the Cameron Highlanders depot at Inverness, Mrs. Collier, and their little daughter. As the party were passing Urquhart Bay they were joking about the “monster,” when suddenly Mrs. Armour Hannay saw a movement in the water and two large humps appeared. They covered a distance of about 15ft and one was bigger than the other. The object moved at a fairly fast pace, but the party watched it from the time they sighted it, half-way between the road and the middle of the loch, until, as it travelled away from them, only one hump was visible. They saw no wash, but the loch was rather rough at the time. Mrs. Armour Hannay said that the two humps moved forward with a smooth motion, but she saw no head or tail.
