We have to remember that back then Dublin was a hive, a busy port, you know, as it still is, I suppose.
But if you can imagine all these tall ships lined up along the Liffey, up as far as Temple Bar, you know, really.
So it was a very, very busy port.
So this would be normal.
This was business as usual.
Ships would leave out to Ring's End, go off for years at a time.
And remember back then there was no radios.
Marconi, we're in Marconi House right now.
Marconi wasn't to invent the radio yet.
So, you know, you just kind of hope for the best and if they didn't come back after a certain amount of time when they should have, you eventually presume... And do we know, were they bringing anything with them to trade or was it cash or gold or whatever it might be?

So they were like, they settled everything.
They settled insurance.
The crew were mourned.
