Devil's Point 04
Whatever it was couldn't be seen. The effect of its movement on the environment could be seen as well as heard. On a couple of its passes we allowed it to get within about 5 feet of us before we fired. This occurred like clockwork about every half hour until sunrise. To this day I am baffled. We have told several people about this, but to really know what it was like you had to be there. We didn't go to sleep that night and we never went back again either. My uncle and I have talked of this very often. Between the 2 of us and to a few people we have told, this spot on the river has gotten the title " Devils' Point ". I wish I knew what it was. The only thing we say about it is that we are very glad we had a gun with us, and we always wondered what would have happened if we would have just sat there and done nothing.
我們無法看到那究竟是什么東西。但它在周圍移動造成的影響我們卻既能看到又能聽到。有幾次我們直到它離我們只有5英尺的時候才開槍。就像上了發(fā)條似的這聲音每半個小時響一次,一直持續(xù)到天亮。直到今天我還是很困惑。我們和好多人說過這事,但要想真正了解實際情形,你就必須得親自到那。我們那晚沒睡覺,從此也再沒到過那。我和叔叔經(jīng)常說起這事。我倆和幾個知道這件事的人給這個地方起了個名字“惡魔的岬角”。我希望能知道那究竟是什么東西。我們很慶幸當時帶了槍,我們一直在想如果當時我倆只是坐在那什么都不干,將會發(fā)生什么事情。
