Sailor's Moonlit Hornet Memory: Exile from Home Sings
A midshipman recalls serving on the sloop Hornet in 1829. On a Cuban night the ship becalmed, the crew gathered as a sailor sang Home Sweet Home. The performance moved officers and men, drawing tears and expressions of gratitude for a moment of shared humanity at sea. The tale ends noting a Denver gold discovery linked to a child-run prospect.
