Excerpt from The Mainland
The harpoon was only fitted with a light shark-line which, John knew, could not stand a great strain, so that he had to work very slowly and carefully. At last he had the stingaree on the surf, but now began the difficult part. The big pectoral fins could here get strong leverage on the sand, and every time that the boy hauled his fish through the surf the stingaree wrenched himself back, threatening to break the line. For half an hour the boy tugged in vain, then to his great delight he saw the black figure of Coffee in the distance. He shouted, and Coffee heard and came towards him.
