Excerpt from Intermere I felt myself being dragged down to the im measurable watery depths, confused with roar ing sounds and oppressed with terrors inde scribable and horrible. The descent seemed miles and miles. Then I felt myself Slowly rising toward the surface, followed by legions of submarine monsters of grotesque Shapes and terrifying aspects. With accelerated motion I approached the surface and, shooting like a cork above the now calm sea, fortunately fell upon a piece of floating wreckage. Looking upward as I lay upon it, I saw the blue sky and the brilliant stars far overhead. The fierce winds and inky darkness and blackness of the night were dis appearing beyond the northeastern horizon.
