                                                                   Moonfleet:

• • This well reminds me of the story of the book of Moonfleet. In Chapter 7, John falls to the bottom of a well to locate an diamond, low and climbed into a bucket held by a cuerda.Pero discovers that the diamond is cursed and who owns it will have bad luck. Finally found the diamond and decides to take it to a merchant named Aldobrand, to know how valuable the diamond.

THE SHIP

This ship remains me of the story MOONFLEET,at the end of chapter 9  but the thing that I remeber most is when Elzevir  tries to save  people's life.
John and elzevir where in this ship because they were leaving Holland.(The prision).
Elzevir was expleining them how to do the things that they had to do it to survive, but no one listen to him.
They  had to be carfull because the big waves can eat them.
At the end of  this adventure john was the only one that survive.
