Queer Fish - Erthygl o The Cambrian, 1906

Disgrifiadau

Erthygl bapur newydd o The Cambrian, a gyhoeddwyd ar 03/08/1906, yn disgrifio fel y bu i “bysgodyn mawr”, gael ei weld, ac mae gwybodaeth leol yn awgrymu ei bod yn bosib mai un ai math o forfil neu siarc oedd hwn, o gwmpas y Mymbls.

Mae'r toriad yn darllen fel a ganlyn: "AGAIN SEEN OFF THE MUMBLES PIER. The large fish which has been haunting the waters around the Mumbles for some time p**t, with another of the same species, was seen near the Mumbles Pier on Sunday afternoon, a huge black fin being seen projecting above the water moving towards the Head. It struck an upright of the pier, righted ****, and proceeded, rounding the Mumbles Lighthouse, where the coastguard fired a shot at it. Piermaster Twomey describes it as a blackfish, a species of whale, apparently nine to ten feet long. The keeper of the Mumbles Lighthouse, Mr. J. Williams, is of the opinion that, instead of being a ‘whale’ – the creature alluded to is a ‘two-foot shark,’ which has been, as he terms it, ‘cruising around for some little time past.’"

Nodwch os gwelwch yn dda, mae * yn dynodi adarannau o'r testun nad oes modd ei ddarllen yn anffodus.
