Mother of the Twins

Pointe Picolet

Near Cap Haitien

North coast of Haiti

Monday, 20 August 1888

I will take the liberty to pause here and praise the men of the Albury family of Man O War Cay in the Abaco Islands of the northern Bahamas, who created Delilah in 1864. That I am alive to share this account is because of them. Delilah was the toughest ship I’ve ever seen, the epitome of the shipbuilders’ art.

She was completely destroyed, of course, by the rock bastions of Haiti, but not before she performed the impossible. A miracle if ever there was one.
