This day in history:
On 5th December 1872 a crewman on watch on board the British ship Dei Gratia sighted vessel that seemed to be in distress. Three seamen lowered the Dei Gratia's small boat and rowed across to the troubled craft to offer assistance. They hauled themselves over the ship's rails and dropped onto the deck; save for the sound of the wind in the sails and the eerie creaking of the ship's timbers, there was not a sound. The seamen searched the ship from stem to stern and found her to be in excellent condition, but there was not a soul on board. Her crew had disappeared. The name of the ship was Mary Celeste. read more
