1847 Transatlantic FLS
ms."per Margaret Evans"
The Margaret Evans was a London packet ship (sailing between New York and London on a regular schedule). She was 899 tons, built 1846 in New York by Westervelt & MacKay and owned by E.E. Morgan. She continued sailing into the 1860s. The ship is celebrated in the chanty "Clear the track", also called "Clear the track, let the bullgine run" or simply "Margaret Evans". As many sailors signed on many different ships within their lives, they brought their songs along with them and many melodies and words were adapted and exchanged. Thats why remarkable derivations of "Clear the track", that originally was written about the "Margaret Evans", can be found. Thus, the music was passed on to more and more people.

Hi! This FLS came from a new collection (70+ items!) I just purchased.
All 19th century worldwide FLS's.
I'll give a nice, short description of it when possible.
Much of the time, I'll let the scans do the talking.
I generally scan ALL or MOST of the enclosure pages (if any) as well as anything
else that might help you to decide whether or not to bid or purchase.
I want you to have as much info on the item as possible.
I will let you read the enclosures for yourselves, as I can only go into so much detail.
I will always try to make the scans large enough to read the writing. Thank You!
Many of these items are better than most FLS's I've seen as far as condition goes. Some will have faults typical of items that went through the mail during that time. Please, view my scans carefully, and form your own opinion of condition.
In general, they will be in Fine / Very Fine condition. Additional information upon request. Just message me! Thanks for looking, and thanks in advance for your bids or purchase!
