Starvation and Cannibalism On The Wrecked British Bark Maria
A letter from Capt. Kane aboard the American schooner E. McDonald, dated Gores January 24, reports the wreck of the British bark Maria, off the west coast of Africa. Two crew survivors were rescued near latitude 37, longitude 82 10. Despite this, famine and exposure claimed the others. The bark, from Dodoy Georgia to Boltaat Ireland, sprang a leak in a gale and died of thirst and hunger. The vessel’s mast broke and masthead, with no provisions, led to dire conditions aboard. One rescued man died within hours. the other survivor provided details. The crew had scarce food or fresh water. The wreck halted progress as the vessel listed amid heavy seas.
