EMBELLISHING THE STORY. By Cable—Press Association—Copyrignt. Fremantle, February 24. After considerable difficulty an efficient interpreter has been found to interview the Finnish sailor Kitala, survivor of the Glenbank. 'When he left the wreck he was accompanied by two companions and a dog. His companions disappeared shortly afterwards, and the dog, witli a terrified cry, was drawn under half an hour later. Hearing a peculiar noise, he turned and saw a tremendous shark, which attacked him at intervals. He fought it off with a knife. While on the reef he lived on the raw flesh of turtles, which were plentiful, but he was unable to find water.
