36xxxx 092 The Descent Into Modern Atlantis

For the third time, a boat bearing the Gregory party lands at the Magic Island of Euchridia. The first time they were searching for the island. The second time they were returned to it as escaping prisoners, and now they have been allowed to land for the purpose of attempting to take over the island.

The small cruiser which brought the captain, Mrs. Gregory, and Jerry, and Joan, It held fast to the Euclidean peer by magnetism.

There is no sound to be heard over the entire island. Well, this blame place has gone another one of its noiseless days. It would seem so, Jerry. It's mighty word at that. It is a terrible place, Captain Bradford.
