Edward Rowe Snow wrote about the Mary Celeste and a lot of other ships and shipwrecks, sea monsters, pirates, gold, lighthouses and miscellaneous. There were supernatural elements in a lot of them. I bought about 9 of them and just a few months ago finished all of them and started on my five Orthodox Jew little miracle books.

I never found the tale again about the 2 priests, each in a different situation. Someone on here years ago wanted me to notify him if I ever came across it again.

I forget details fast but I had several favorites. One was about a descendant of a man who took all his money out of the bank and I think he left a curious will. A generation or two wondered about the money until it was down to one survivor, a woman who lived in the house, was getting up in years and faced with poverty.

She either had a dream or apparition, but a man came to her and pointed to a brick in the fireplace. She hired some workers and they removed the bricks, it took several, but down in the hole was all the money.

One of my most favorites was about the Ghost ship of New Haven since this is about ships. You can google it and I doubt you'll find Edward Rowe Snow's account but there are other pages on the web.

I’m originally from Saskatchewan so anyone at least in the Atlantic provinces have heard of Mary Celeste. Heck, the Titanic is more popular there as the survivors landed there first.

Thank you for the Ghost Ship of New Haven. Have lived near New Haven all my life and had never heard that story.
