Â Reclaiming the Bounty

We know from the diary of Jamesb> Morrison (bosun's mate aboard Bounty), that the crew collected curios in Tahiti, and the gorget and cowrie may be such mementos or they may have belonged to one of the Polynesians brought to Pitcairn aboard Bounty.
The large amount of ordnance we found at the wreck site indicates that the mutineers were either unable to transport it ashore or left it behind because they did not have enough powder to use it.
Nobbs came to the island in 1828 after a life at sea.

Â Local: Dole Visit

Dole was introduced Wednesday by Republican U.S. Sen. Connie Mack, who said Dole is traveling across America to talk about ``common sense solutions.'' Jerry Gerde, chairman of the Bay County Republican Party, said Dole's home town of Russell, Kan., is similar to Bay County in that its residents take care of each other.
Smith, who attended the speech with her daughter and granddaughters, said she has not always voted Republican, but she believes in Dole's policies.
Dole spoke from a podium bearing a sign that read ``It's Your Money.'' ``You're going to get the tax cut if I get elected, and I'm going to get elected, so you're going to get it,'' the former U.S. Senate majority leader told the crowd.

Â The Demise Of Captain Cook

Cook was led to a heiau, the same rock temple called Hikiau that can be found at Kealakekua Bay today, to take part in an elaborate ceremony, at the conclusion of which he was made to bow to the ground and kiss an image of the war god Ku.
Near Hana, Cook's ships were met by King Kalaniopu'u, who had been warring against Kahekili, but because of the makahiki, the fighting had been suspended.
Ten months later, he returned from the north, badly in need of provisions and a safe harbor to repair his ships.

Â Port Hope Simpson wild bay

The papers had told Richard a great deal about the early history of Wild Bay but very little about the mysterious circumstances surrounding the deaths of John Jones and Emily Jeffrey.
The peace and quietness of Wild Bay in the early morning as the water lapped and sparkled against the shoreline was truly a medicine for Richard
Similarly, through the Company Store in Wild Bay, Kevin Quigley Company Manager was able to fiddle the books as he charged whatever was needed to keep his workers and their families continually in debt.

Â Mutiny on the Bounty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bligh was appointed Commanding Lieutenant of Bounty on August 16, 1787 at the age of 33, after a career that included a tour as sailing master of Jamesb> Cook's HMS Resolution during Cook's third voyage (1776-1779).
Of the 42 men on board aside from Bligh and Christian, 18 joined Christian in mutiny, 2 were passive, and 22 remained loyal to Bligh.
While he may have been comparatively lenient in actual discipline, some historians have speculated that his demanding character cost him the loyalty necessary to maintain good order among the crew, especially in light of six months of soft living in Tahiti.
