Excerpt:
Almost without warning, Preston's head popped up through the black abyss and at once proclaimed he had discovered a major section of cave. He reported that he had traveled through the under water sump passage and had surfaced near a major waterfall, which cascaded down the wall of an immense room which he estimated to be 35 feet wide, 50 feet long and 40 feet tall. With a great amount of difficulty he successfully scaled it and went on to explore large upper level walking passages lined with hundreds of bats and thousands of rare and unique
formations. After determining that the cave continued ahead without closing down he retraced his journey out.
