Shipwreck account of the Yel from Ireland told in 1737
A public notice casts doubt on a private letter's shipwreck account from Ste Eve Island. It recounts the peril, the crew losses, and survivors saved by Governor Cosby’s relief efforts, with details of the voyage, vessel, and the aftermath among families and merchants. Also notes political and ceremonial items from the period and lottery prizes.
