INTRODUCTION.
THE contents of Captain Ser. William H.W. Packet’s Journal of the Aurora Expedition, were; much like the story of the expedition itself, a mystery for the better part of two and half centuries. The Journal, which existence was known,[1] was none-the-less thought to be forever lost with Packet’s flagship Aurora, sunken somewhere at the bottom of the Northern Sea.
That was until the early hours of the 13th of Solace. When nine year old Nettle Ingram, playing in the hard packed dirt beneath an ancient pine tree on her fathers Cat Wood farm, discovered brown chamois leather game-bag with the marking H.W. embroidered on its outer sleeve, buried not but 2 inches beneath the dirt.
FOOTNOTES:
[1]: “[C]aptain [Packet] was always writing in his journal. Would say, he would tell [Edith] about this, or that, and that he had’t write it down”, David Brown, former bosun of the Aurora during the expedition. The remarks of several of the survivors of the Aurora Expedition, interviewed and complied by journalist and biographer Harry Reynold, including transcripts taken from the court-martial and trial following the survivors return in 95 B.A. can be found in, Mutiny! The Untold Story of the Aurora Expedition, a Tale of Shipwreck, Treachery, and Murder as Told by Her Crew (97 B.A.).
