Claare ny Gael 15th September 2024

In the early 20th century, Christopher Shimmin wrote plays for Peel Players. When Sophia Morrison launched the magazine Mannin for Yn Cheshaght Ghailckagh in 1913 his story The Smuggler appeared in the first edition. We hear the first part of that story in this edition of Claare ny Gael.Having reached the port of Galatz, the friends hear how the box in which Count Dracula is shipping himself back home has been taken by a shipping agent called Hildesheim, who has let it go in the hands of another agent, Skinsky. Even as they try to trace Skinsky, news comes of his violent death, his throat ripped out. Another episode in our translation into Manx of Bram Stoker's Dracula.
