CURIOUS
MARINE
TRAGEDY
Killer
Whales
Washed
Up
On
Shore
Near
Massett
Word
received
from
Massett
Is
that
a
curious
marine
tragedy
took
place,
close
to
the
native
village
last
week.
Eleven
finback
whales
were
washed
up
on
to
the
sandy
beach
at
a
point
on
Massett
Inlet
right
across
from
the
village.
Nothing
Is
known
as
to
what
caused
the
tragedy.
It
occurred
during
a
storm
but
the
natives'
thought
the
whales
had
been
chasing
seals
and
had
got
so
far
up
the
beach
that
they
were
unable
to
return
into
deep
water.
Some
of
the
whales,
known
generally
as
killers,
were
25
to
30
feet
long
and
four
feet
through.
Two
were
quite
small
ones.
