42 2 a.m. no.9 - Finback - J - May 20 - Aikawa This whale was drawn out upon the slip so that measurements are all correct. Color Body I did not have an opportunity to observe carefully the tip of the head. On the side a [illegible] gray band comes down backward from root of fin below; it is about 2 ft. long x 1 ft. wide. The second band which is dark gray (much darker than first) is the same size x runs down & back at same angle begins opposite end of fin laid back. On there the central area has bottoms of furrows pinkish & sides of throat has them dark. The same condition extends for whole length backward except on belly about opposite tips of fin laid back where all furrows are dark except very median ventral areas. Right side runs very light gray (almost white) especially toward the tip. Between the corner of mouth and right fin the grayish of the lower back runs down out to folds about 2 1/2 ft - at corner of mouth a very dark band runs backward not quite reaching fin insertion - on the throat between the corners of the mouth 16 furrows are pinkish & the rest are dark.
