On 20 October 1854 in Sevastopol, a Crimean War soldier wrote,

"Day and night, the pounding of the boat continues. Amid the thunder of artillery, I snatch a few moments to write to you. Here, the harbour is full of drift timber, broken into the smallest fragments, and, horrible to relate, trunks of human bodies all mutilated and torn." (AUDIO: The Angel of Scutari)

In 1901, the Lankester sank during its yearly voyage from Madagascar to New Orleans. (AUDIO: Cryptobiosis)
