The look on the Aborigines faces when they hanged that young lad, and they called them savages!!!
A very sad story but thoroughly enjoyed it

"Sadly, nothing is known of what happened to Mary after returning home to Fowey." Apparently she collected an annuity from Rev John Baron (on behalf of James Boswell), "but there are no records of marriages, births or even deaths that set her firmly in Fowey."
its a good book and now I'm waiting for amazon to deliver -To brave every danger by Judith Cook which is about Mary Bryant

Re: The Incredible Journey of Mary Bryant
hevs - lol......im with you on that - he was very...um....tasty
buttockup - a very observant, and if i may say, accurate, description of his mouth
i thought i read that mary bryant remarried when she returned to cornwall and had another child, but basically just faded from the public eye - as you would back in 1790s britain
