Wreck of the Brig "Retriever", in the Boccases, Trinidad, 1850. View of the Retriever, whose captain was named Galloway. The catastrophe happened in the Boccases, Trinidad, where the vessel was driven under calm inside the rocks by the strength of the current, which is exceedingly rapid in these passages. The situation of the brig is truly curious, on account of the narrowness of the passage; probably, had the captain wished to go through so narrow an entrance, he would not have been able without touching one of the rocks on each side. The scene represented is a few days after the catastrophe; the wind was blowing strongly and the sea running very high'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
