IRISH OFFSHORE ISLANDS - RUTLAND ISLAND - RARE EARLY LETTER WITH
"NARIN" REF. SHIPWRECK; Fine 10 Apr. 1787 EL (neatly fold to show
internal dated heading alongside address-panel) from Captain
Cadenhead recently wrecked on this remote west coast Donegal island
on the American ship 'Success'; sent to Bristol (redirected
locally) charged "4" then "1/$" with a very fine rare "NARIN" (only
one other example recorded) on the front. This is the equal
earliest known (and one of only two 18th century) cover recorded
from this island; the other (with a badly damaged address panel)
was sent by the same man on the same day to the same address. The
ship was en route from Philadelphia to Killybegs (and then
Dominica), and the Captain and crew were very fortunate that the
local M.P., W.B. Conyngham, had set up an entirely new village on
the island in 1784. The locals helped rescue the cargo and repair
the ship! With full research notes about the voyage, the ship and
the wreck. Cross Reference : CRASH/WRECK MAIL, UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA (Estimate 300 GBP)

BRAZIL PACKET LETTER TO LONDON DIVERTED VIA DUBLIN DUE TO GROUNDING
ON VALENTIA ISLAND; Fine 9 Jan. 1840 E from Rio to Huth in London
"p Skylark Packet" charged the "2/9" 'up to ½ oz' rate; with a very
fine British P.O. "RIO-JANEIRO" cds (filing fold) on the front; but
there is also - most exceptionally - a 5 March red diamond-framed
Dublin transit ds on the lower flap (with 7 Mar. London F.B.
arrival backstamp). Research at the P.R.O. has tracked down the
ship's log: after strong gales blew her off course, she was briefly
grounded on Valentia Island in Co. Kerry. The Captain was C.P.
Ladd, but it was later established that two of his officers, "J.
Burton and T. Garland were drunk" at the time...! The 'Skylark' was
refloated and was soon returned to the South America service where
she continued as a P.O. Packet ship until she was totally wrecked
in 1845. Rare early item connected with Valentia Island in the far
west. Cross Reference : BRAZIL, CRASH/WRECK MAIL, MARITIME MAIL
