Task I
In 1902 when I was 16 I went to work with some whalers. I saw a killer whale they called Old Tom jumping out of the water and crashing into it again. A whaler told me it was telling us that a large whale was in the bay. The whalers and I ran to our boats. In the distance we saw other killer whales attacking a larger whale to stop it from escaping out to sea. The whalers killed it with a harpoon and the killer whales dragged it underwater. A whaler told me that the killer whales were feeding on its lips and tongue and that we would come back later for the rest of the whale when it floated to the surface. The killer whales also protected the whalers. One day when a man fell out of his boat Old Tom stopped a shark from attacking him.
