formless gray and began reaching toward the motionless Eric. Eric stood, rooted to the spot, incapable of sound or motion. A powerful mixed feeling of horror, nausea and revulsion held him in its grip. His cheeks were white, his lips pale and compressed. His eyes stared glassilyg cold beads of sweat stood out on his brow. Never before in his life had he met such a horror. He. who had never known fear. now stood impotently in its hold. The devil-fish. Eight long snake- like. sucking tentacles. A horrible rending beak. Two great. dull, star- ing eyes. Revolting, hideous. ghast- ly monster. With a sudden, whip-like move- ment the tentacle wound itself about his leg: the suckers bit deep into his iiesh. The shock of the im- pact aroused Eric from his stupor into frantic action. He snatched at his knife and slashed at the tight- ening bond of death. He severed it and scrambled back, his flesh crawl- ing with dread. Another tentacle lashed out ot grip his left arm. Again the knife slashed to bring his freedom. Above, in the boat, Captain Ga- brill, peering down anxiously into the sombre depths, had perceived the monster advancing on Eric, and now he and the black began tugging madly at the rope. But it was caught fast. Below, Eric struggled vainly to extricate himself. Already both legs and his left arm were held fast. Inexorably, the monster was over- coming him. Now all reason left Eric. He slashed and cut hysteric- ally with his blood-stained knife. His air supply was giving out. His lungs ached. His face was purple: his tongue black and swollen. Suddenly. under strain of the Captain and the black. the rope broke loose, pulling tight about Eric's waist and raising him. Yet so overcome was Eric, with dumb terror. that he took this for yet an- other tentacle making fast about his body, and slashed at his own life-line, severing it, and thus seal- ing his own doom. A tentacle fastened on his body. and still another, secured his flailing right arm. Relentlessly, impotently his Writhing body was drawn for- ward. The formidable beak opened. Eric gave a frenzied shriek . . . All was silent save for the horrid sounds of a monster feeding. Q' Bruce Harvey. A X D THE GRUMBLER 31
