LOG OF THE "DEMETER" Varna to Whitby
On 14 July was somewhat anxious about crew. Men all steady fellows, who sailed with me before. Mate could not make out what was wrong. They only told him there was SOMETHING, and crossed themselves. Mate lost temper with one of them that day and struck him. Expected fierce quarrel, but all was quiet.
It is only now, when they are unable to easily get into port, that the men’s misgivings are amplified and break out into the open.
