Voyage of H.M.S. 'Pandora'

Note 73-1 — CAPTAIN EDWARDS' REPORTS.

Reading edition

Two men were crushed to death; one by a gun that had broken loose, and the other by a falling spar. The whole ship's company seems to have behaved splendidly, working at the pumps and at the sail they were preparing to haul under the ship's bottom until they could scarcely stand for fatigue, with nothing to replenish their strength but "a cask of excellent strong ale which we brewed at Anamooka" (Hamilton).

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
