Lake
was
not
content
to
let
his
first
message
stand
,
but
had
another
bulletin
written
and
dispatched
across
the
snow
to
the
camp
before
Moulton
could
get
back
.
After
that
Moulton
stayed
at
the
wireless
in
one
of
the
planes
,
transmitting
to
me
-
and
to
the
Arkham
for
relaying
to
the
outside
world
-
the
frequent
postscripts
which
Lake
sent
him
by
a
succession
of
messengers
.
Those
who
followed
the
newspapers
will
remember
the
excitement
created
among
men
of
science
by
that
afternoon
's
reports
-
reports
which
have
finally
led
,
after
all
these
years
,
to
the
organization
of
that
very
Starkweather-Moore
Expedition
which
I
am
so
anxious
to
dissuade
from
its
purposes
.
I
had
better
give
the
messages
literally
as
Lake
sent
them
,
and
as
our
base
operator
McTighe
translated
them
from
the
pencil
shorthand
:
"
Fowler
makes
discovery
of
highest
importance
in
sandstone
and
limestone
fragments
from
blasts
.
Several
distinct
triangular
striated
prints
like
those
in
Archaean
slate
,
proving
that
source
survived
from
over
six
hundred
million
years
ago
to
Comanchian
times
without
more
than
moderate
morphological
changes
and
decrease
in
average
size
,
Comanchian
prints
apparently
more
primitive
or
decadent
,
if
anything
,
than
older
ones
.
Emphasize
importance
of
discovery
in
press
.
Will
mean
to
biology
what
Einstein
has
meant
to
mathematics
and
physics
.
Joins
up
with
my
previous
work
and
amplifies
conclusions
.
"
Appears
to
indicate
,
as
I
suspected
,
that
earth
has
seen
whole
cycle
or
cycles
of
organic
life
before
known
one
that
begins
with
Archaeozoic
cells
.
Was
evolved
and
specialized
not
later
than
a
thousand
million
years
ago
,
when
planet
was
young
and
recently
uninhabitable
for
any
life
forms
or
normal
protoplasmic
structure
.
Question
arises
when
,
where
,
and
how
development
took
place
.
"
"
Later
.
Examining
certain
skeletal
fragments
of
large
land
and
marine
saurians
and
primitive
mammals
,
find
singular
local
wounds
or
injuries
to
bony
structure
not
attributable
to
any
known
predatory
or
carnivorous
animal
of
any
period
,
of
two
sorts-straight
,
penetrant
bores
,
and
apparently
hacking
incisions
.
One
or
two
cases
of
cleanly
severed
bones
.
Not
many
specimens
affected
.
Am
sending
to
camp
for
electric
torches
.
Will
extend
search
area
underground
by
hacking
away
stalactites
.
"
"
Still
later
.
Have
found
peculiar
soapstone
fragment
about
six
inches
across
and
an
inch
and
a
half
thick
,
wholly
unlike
any
visible
local
formation
-
greenish
,
but
no
evidences
to
place
its
period
.
Has
curious
smoothness
and
regularity
.
Shaped
like
five-pointed
star
with
tips
broken
off
,
and
signs
of
other
cleavage
at
inward
angles
and
in
center
of
surface
.
Small
,
smooth
depression
in
center
of
unbroken
surface
.
Arouses
much
curiosity
as
to
source
and
weathering
.
Probably
some
freak
of
water
action
.
Carroll
,
with
magnifier
,
thinks
he
can
make
out
additional
markings
of
geologic
significance
.
Groups
of
tiny
dots
in
regular
patterns
.
Dogs
growing
uneasy
as
we
work
,
and
seem
to
hate
this
soapstone
.
Must
see
if
it
has
any
peculiar
odor
.
Will
report
again
when
Mills
gets
back
with
light
and
we
start
on
underground
area
.

Important
discovery
.
Orrendorf
and
Watkins
,
working
underground
at
9:45
with
light
,
found
monstrous
barrel-shaped
fossil
of
wholly
unknown
nature
;
probably
vegetable
unless
overgrown
specimen
of
unknown
marine
radiata
.
Tissue
evidently
preserved
by
mineral
salts
.
Tough
as
leather
,
but
astonishing
flexibility
retained
in
places
.
Marks
of
broken-off
parts
at
ends
and
around
sides
.
Six
feet
end
to
end
,
three
and
five-tenths
feet
central
diameter
,
tapering
to
one
foot
at
each
end
.
Like
a
barrel
with
five
bulging
ridges
in
place
of
staves
.
Lateral
breakages
,
as
of
thinnish
stalks
,
are
at
equator
in
middle
of
these
ridges
.
In
furrows
between
ridges
are
curious
growths
-
combs
or
wings
that
fold
up
and
spread
out
like
fans
.
All
greatly
damaged
but
one
,
which
gives
almost
seven-foot
wing
spread
.
Arrangement
reminds
one
of
certain
monsters
of
primal
myth
,
especially
fabled
Elder
Things
in
Necronomicon
.
"
Their
wings
seem
to
be
membranous
,
stretched
on
frame
work
of
glandular
tubing
.
Apparent
minute
orifices
in
frame
tubing
at
wing
tips
.
Ends
of
body
shriveled
,
giving
no
clue
to
interior
or
to
what
has
been
broken
off
there
.
Must
dissect
when
we
get
back
to
camp
.
Ca
n't
decide
whether
vegetable
or
animal
.
Many
features
obviously
of
almost
incredible
primitiveness
.
Have
set
all
hands
cutting
stalactites
and
looking
for
further
specimens
.
Additional
scarred
bones
found
,
but
these
must
wait
.
Having
trouble
with
dogs
.
They
ca
n't
endure
the
new
specimen
,
and
would
probably
tear
it
to
pieces
if
we
did
n't
keep
it
at
a
distance
from
them
.
