The Wreck of the Delaware

Many, many years ago there was a boat, crew and a captain. The captain’s name was Baldwin. One day there was a storm and Captain was in the boat, yes, his crew too. Huria hurried with her companion to the boat. Henry Squirrell, a man on the boat said to the captain, “I will swim to the shore with a rope on my tummy.”

“OK,” said Captain Baldwin and Henry jumped into the sea. When he jumped into the water, he instantly crashed into the rocks. The crew pulled him out of the water.

Huria and her companion smashed into the water to get all of the crew. When all of the crew were on shore, then Captain Baldwin tried to swim to shore. Huria saw Captain Baldwin. Huria knew that he wouldn’t make it. Finally Huria went and got him. After that they saw Henry Squirrell saying, “Help,” but the rope was broken. A few minutes later he drowned.

From that day on Huria was a legend.
