Lighthouse Keeper Ziegler and the Bishop's Rock Mystery
A Danish born lighthouse keeper Ziegler at Bishop's Rock faced a dangerous winter watch and vanished after logging a 3 40 entry about a schooner. His wife later explained his death on Christmas Eve when he failed to return, leaving Leopold to carry on as the island’s keeper. The narrative recalls a life of duty and peril at sea.
