smalls lighthouse
hello, dreamwidth! i have been. busy. recently. school has decided to drive me insane. i have had 6 tests in the past two weeks, two on the same day. i crave some sort of escape. i may be in the midst of some sort of episode
i recently found myself researching small's lighthouse, a horrible tragedy that happened in 1801
small's lighthouse was a highly dangerous lighthouse off the coast of wales, manned by two keepers - thomas howell and thomas griffith. they were known to hate each other, and when griffith died in an accident, howell was worried the authorities would arrest him for a murder he didn't commit. he kept his partner's body in a makeshift coffin- but the winds blew it open, letting griffith's arm dangle within view of one of the windows. the wind made it look like griffith was beckoning howell outside.
i don't know why i wanted to post about this . it just seemed important
