The Lost Ship
CHAPTER 1
Stephen Colbourn
Sunday, 5th December 1872.
The weather is fine. The wind is blowing
and the ship is sailing quickly.
The men are happy. We are sailing between
Cuba and Florida.
We are going to be in Florida soon. We are
going to reach Florida in three or four days.
This is the Captain of the ship. He is in his
cabin. He is writing in the ship’s log book.
The Captain writes in the log book every day. He writes about the weather and he writes about
the ship. He also writes about the men on the ship.
The ship is old. It is a sailing ship. The wind blows and the ship sails.
The Captain and his men are going home. They are going to reach home soon. They are well
and happy.
Captain! There's a strange ship near us. Can you come on
deck? (says a man)
Now the Captain and all the men are on deck. They are
looking at the strange ship.
It's a very strange ship. There’s no name on the ship. There
are no men on deck. Where are the ship’s men?
