When a US Navy exploratory ship finds a tramp steamer that went missing some years before, the mystery surrounding its disappearance becomes closer to being solved when a passenger’s journal is uncovered. But what really happened aboard the Wellington and what became of its crew?

This original recording is an audio presentation by Jasper L'Estrange for EnCrypted Horror. “SARGASSO” by Ward Muir, 1908.
