The Island of Outer Inland and the Rat Ship Treasure
The narrator recounts a Saigon resident, Mrs Du Clit, who, after a shipwreck near Borneo, survives on a two mile island. She finds a pirate treasure cave containing gold, jewelry, and documents worth thousands, including a ship’s wire marked Antasia. Rats later overrun the island, thwarting a landing. The tale is confirmed by locals, but most treasure profits go to colonial officials.
