unfortunately. was one Of the
meanest and most callous.
She took command when her
husband, governor of a Span
ish expedition that set out
/. from Peru for the Solomon Is
lands in 1895. died on the
islands. On the dreadful voy-
age which her flagship made
to Manila, the "governesS" re-
fused to share the ample pro-
visions in her cabin with the
starving crew.
The Island King
Have you ever heard Of Sam
Comstock. brought up a Quak-
er, son of the schoolmaster of
Nantucket. who. as a youthful
g., ships officer in 1924, staged
one Of the bloodiest and most
inexcusable mutinies in his
tory? He did this in pursuit of
q childish dream, that he
would be king of an island,
with a harem and a horde of
servants. Then there was Mich
olas Iquan, the Chinese pirate.
and his more famous son, Cox
tnga. Lord Of the Seas, who in
the middle of the 18th century
controlled all the shipping of
China. Japan and Formosa.
OF course. you've heard Of
Capt. william Bligh, survivor
Of the Bounty mutiny. But the
authors have not rewritten the
Hall Nordoff books or the
movie, but have tried to strip
history from romance and do
justice to Bligh. He was a
brave man and great fighter
in Britain's naval wars around
the turn Of the 18th century,
and it's even doubtful If he
ever was mean to his men be-
yond the strict discipline Of
that day. He died an honored
vice admiral.
