The Cruise of The 'Alerte'CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, 25 de mar. de 2017 - 194 páginas These adventurers started full of hope, but were doomed to disappointment, as is shown in the following extract which I cut from a daily paper some months later: - 'Further information has been received regarding the unfortunate expedition of the "Aurea," the vessel chartered by a number of Tynesiders for a voyage to the small island of Trinidad, off the coast of Brazil, where it was reported a large amount of treasure was concealed. The last letter is from one of the seamen, a young man named Russell, to his parents in North Shields. Russell states that it is with "the greatest pleasure" that he has an opportunity of writing, and continues to say that the "Aurea" left the island on April 29, and, he was sure, the crew were not sorry at leaving. |
