Hello, I recently read an article about plans to salvage a 300 year old shipwreck off the coast of North Ronaldsay that contains a cargo of Indian dyewood. If possible, the Islanders then want to use the wood to make dye to color local wool products for market. Does anyone have an update on this story or more information? Dan

Not much to report really other than it never happened. -- Sigurd Towrie Blackhall - Kirbister - Stromness - Orkney Heritage of Orkney: www.orkneyjar.com Home: sigurd@orkneyjar.com Work: sigurd.towrie@orcadian.co.uk
