Habakuk Jephson's Statement , did not adhere to the facts. He renamed the ship Marie Celeste , the captain's name was J. Tibbs, the fatal voyage took place in and was from Boston to Lisbon. The vessel carried passengers, among them the titular Jephson.
Here, the rest of the ship's company is killed, save for Jephson who is spared because he possesses a magical charm that is venerated by Goring and his accomplices. In this version all on board except Fosdyk were drowned or eaten by sharks after a temporary platform, on which they had crowded to watch a swimming contest, collapsed into the sea. Unlike Doyle's story, this was proposed by the magazine as a serious solution to the enigma, but it contained many simple mistakes: Again presented as a survivor's story—one "John Pemberton"—this told a complex tale of murder, madness and collusion with the Dei Gratia.
It included basic errors such as using Doyle's name "Marie Celeste" , and misnaming key personnel. In , the Daily Express published a story from a retired naval war hero, Captain R.
Lucy, whose informant, allegedly, was Mary Celeste' s former bosun [] —no such person is recorded in the registered crew list. They decide to split the money, abandon Mary Celeste , and seek new lives in Spain, which they reach by using the steamer's lifeboats. Hastings finds it astonishing that such an unlikely story was, for a time, widely believed; readers, he says " Chambers's Journal of September 17, , suggests that the entire complement of Mary Celeste was plucked off one by one by a giant octopus or squid.
Under this new ownership, Mary Celeste sailed mainly in the West Indian and Indian Ocean routes, regularly losing money. Helena , [] where she had called to seek medical assistance for her captain, Edgar Tuthill, who had fallen ill. Tuthill died on the island, encouraging the idea that the ship was cursed—he was her third captain to die prematurely. A new captain, Thomas L. Fleming, remained in the post until August , when he was replaced by Gilman C.
There are no records of her voyages during this time, although Brian Hicks, in his study of the affair, asserts that Gove tried hard to make a success of her. Parker deliberately ran the ship on to this reef, ripping out her bottom and wrecking her beyond repair. When the consul reported that what he had bought was almost worthless, [] the ship's insurers began a thorough investigation, which soon revealed the truth of the over-insured cargo.
In July , Parker and the shippers were tried in Boston for conspiracy to commit insurance fraud. Parker was additionally charged with "wilfully cast[ing] away the ship," a crime known as barratry and at the time carrying the death penalty.
The conspiracy case was heard first, but on August 15, the jury announced that they could not agree on a verdict. Some jurors were unwilling to risk prejudicing Parker's forthcoming capital trial by finding him guilty on the conspiracy charge. Rather than ordering an expensive retrial, the judge negotiated an arrangement whereby the defendants withdrew their insurance claims and repaid all they had received. The barratry charge against Parker was deferred, and he was allowed to go free.
Nevertheless, his professional reputation was ruined, and he died in poverty three months later. One of his co-defendants went mad, and another committed suicide. Begg observes that "if the court of man could not punish these men In August , an expedition headed by the marine archaeologist and author Clive Cussler announced that they had found the remains of a ship embedded in the Rochelois reef.
Only a few pieces of timber and some metal artifacts could be salvaged, the remainder of the wreckage being lost within the coral. Ghost Ship []. Mary Celeste was not the first reported case of a ship being found strangely deserted on the high seas. Rupert Gould , a naval officer and investigator of maritime mysteries, lists several such occurrences between and David Wright, the affair's principal historian, has described the case as " The Mary Celeste story inspired two well-received radio plays in the s, by L.
It was not a commercial success, although Begg considers it "a period piece well worth watching. The pursuing Daleks also materialise, in their own time machine, causing the terrified crew of Mary Celeste to throw themselves into the sea. Both time machines then dematerialise, leaving the ship deserted. In November , the Smithsonian Channel screened a documentary, The True Story of the Mary Celeste , which investigated many aspects of the case without offering any definite solution.
At Spencer's Island, Mary Celeste and her lost crew are commemorated by a monument at the site of the brigantine's construction and by a memorial outdoor cinema built in the shape of the vessel's hull.

Discovery position, 4 Dec. Last log position, 25 Nov. There has never been a clear consensus on any one scenario. It is a mystery that has tormented countless people, including the families of the lost sailors and hundreds of others who have tried in vain to solve the riddle. The Ghost Ship may be the best example of the old proverb that the sea never gives up its secrets.
In his account, the trip took Amazon first to the port of Windsor, Nova Scotia , where she was loaded with plaster for transport to New York.
