Mary Celeste mystery solved?!

[C. F. Leon]

I don't believe this is a new theory. Paul Begg actually wrote a book on the Mary Celeste that I own and think is a great book. He talks about lots of theories and presents some stuff not published before in a book on the MC. It piqued my interest in the case.

It was what was accepted by the insurance company at the time. It became a Big Mystery due to Frederick Solly-Flood, Attorney General of Gibraltar, making a Big Thing out of it and casting doubt on the Dei Gratia's crew, who found the derelict ship. When that failed, he came up with the ridiculous ideas such as the giant octopus, the waterspout, etc.
