Story entitled 'Sea-Serpent' in which the informant vividly tells Carmichael how he once saw a sea-serpent at dawn on Loch huntain [-] coming close to him. He 'thought it was someth[ing] unnat[ural]' and he felt his 'Knees Knocking' but soon saw that it was a line of five otters, holding the otter in front by its tail. 'When they land[ed] they disengaged - & lay down in a cuach (ring) in a place evidently used f[or] it.'
