from The Shipwreck Archives · host Shipwreck Archives

The World of Adventure, by Cassell and Company, published in 1899, contained the story of the Vicar of Mullyon, a man who had been active in the story of the wreck of the Jonkheer Meester Van de Wall van Puttershoek: “The wind swept right up from the sea, scarcely more than half a mile distant from the vicarage, and its shriek in the trees outside, together with the thundering of the surf upon the shore, were all the sounds his ear could catch. If another sound commingled with the din it was effectually drowned. Nor could anything be seen; no blue light, no rocket, nor any signal of distress--only black darkness. The cry, if cry it had been, was not repeated.”Ship Name: Jonkheer Meester Van de Wall van PuttershoekTonnage: 650 tons Nationality: Dutch Ship Type: East Indiaman Year Wrecked: 1867Location Wrecked: Men-y-grib Point, England Reason for Wreck: Blew onto Rocks During StormLives Lost: 24Sources: https://books.google.com/books?id=6BY5AQAAMAAJ&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&dq=shipwreck+1867+jonkheer&source=gbs_navlinks_shttps://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/60842002?searchTerm=french%20shipwreckhttps://books.google.com/books?id=Ogj6f-YU74gC&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&dq=jonkheer+meester+van+de+wall+van+puttershoek&source=gbs_navlinks_shttps://books.google.com/books?id=ydLjnrqh-q4C&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&dq=shipwreck+1867+jonkheer&source=gbs_navlinks_shttps://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/33148/pg33148-images.htmlhttps://newspaperarchive.com/london-magnet-apr-08-1867-p-2/https://books.google.com/books?id=5MwHAAAAQAAJ&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&dq=shipwreck+cornwall+1867+jonkheer&source=gbs_navlinks_shttps://www.opc-cornwall.org/deaths/mullion_death_wreck_jonkheer_1867.pdf
