These newspapers just keep on giving!
Newcastle Courant Saturday 14 December:
"Last Monday evening , a Brig loaden with merchant goods fro Dundee from London, struck on Bondacar Rocks, near Coquet Island, and beat her bottom entirely out. The Captain and crew were saved, except a boy, and 29 passengers perished."
