The article is entitled 'The Case For The Sea-serpent by Reginald Pound'. Alongside the opening paragraphs an illustration shows a sea serpent rising up from the sea as a ship approaches.

First page of a 1924 article in 'Wide World Magazine' on an old perennial of #cryptozoology. 'Wide World' came from the same publishers as 'The Strand', George Newnes, and in 1942 Pound was appointed its (final) editor.
