AWHM ep05 Longboat rescued at sea by Morgan

A float with Henry Morgan. A float with Henry Morgan is written for radio by Warren Barry and a George Edwards production. A Spanish ship captures the English merchantman, the Elizabeth Anne, upon which is sailing Antoinette Delacie, a French kinswoman of the English governor of Jamaica, Sir Thomas Motford. The governor of Spanish Cuba, Don Pietro Pizzarro, to whom Antoinette is taken,

discovers that Sir Thomas Motford has never seen her, and so his daughter Dolores Pizzaro begs to be allowed to go to Jamaica, masquerading as Antoinette de Lacey, to enable her to trap the English-Bacaneer Henry Morgan, and to recover a fabulous necklace which Morgan has taken.

In Port Royal, Morgan befriends a young man named Jeffrey Hunter, and offers him a birth upon his ship, The Flying Gull. Unexpectedly receiving an order to sail, Morgan sends Hunter to the Dolphin tavern to round up the crew. Hunter has trouble with a seaman called deitz and is forced to knock him out. Kitty, the serving wench, is attracted to Hunter, but he

spurns her and takes deitz back to the flying gull. All of your crew who was standing there feets should be aboard when I'll catch him up. And is one who cannot that you're carrying it?

He'll be alright. Yeah, tell him off your shoulder. You're going to. Yeah, so it's deitz, is it? You warn me Captain Henry, I might have trouble with the arts. I had all of heaven. He seemed reluctant to obey your order to return to the ship.

He was foolish enough to draw a knife on me. Didn't he now? I thought somehow he would. Just hold him in it now, Captain. Why did you send me to round up the crew? None of them know me.
