The story is attributed to the captain of the ship Crescent City and the location as Carabelle, Florida. 1896 is a typo and Carabelle, Florida is on the New River Inlet. Those two things together make it much more likely that this is indeed the same carcass-but all in all, a less trustwothy story being told about it.<br /><br />Best Wishes, Dale D.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
