Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Strange Manuscript Found in a Copper Cylinder
IT occurred as far back as February 15, 1850. It hap pened on that day that the yacht Falcon lay becalmed upon the ocean between the Canaries and the Madeira Islands. This yacht Falcon was the property of Lord Featherstone, who, being weary Of life in England, had taken a few congenial friends for a Winter's cruise in these southern latitudes. They had visited the Azores, the Canaries, and the Madeira Islands, and were now on their way to the Mediterranean.
