The bathers were cautious and few went far out.

It was thought for a time here that the hammer head that attacked Vansant had been captured. Joseph Sprague, a skilled fisherman in Little Egg Harbor Bay, back of here, caught and killed a shark five feet in icngtn. wnen tne news was spread about an impression was gen eral that it was the one that brought death to the Philadelphian. How ever, the one caught in the bay was not nearly as large as the one that attacked Vansant. Jt was cut open and found to contain only eels, fish and sea growth.

Abe Price, another bay fisherman killed one six feet long. Experienced men Irere, employes of the Hotel Baldwin, who work in southern waters in the winter, say they feel sure that the big man eater which came in Saturday had drifted into shallow water and was marooned at low tide.
