Whales.

Published in the Sangamon Journal, Springfield, Illinois on Saturday, July 25, 1835

The Nantucket Enquirer says, that a Mr. Hale, of that Island, was recently seized by a whale, while sailing in an open boat, and shaken for some moments as a cat shakes a rat and then thrown to the distance of several yards. The editor adds, that the whales have become unusually fierce and cross. We do not wonder at it. They are an injured race, and it is high time they should show a proper resentment.
