It has been awhile since I aw the movie Mutiny on the Bounty, and it was on this date in 1789, that the survivors of the mutiny arrived at Timor in spite of the fact that the mutineers intended for the captain and his loyalists to die while adrift in the sea. It was an amazing voyage, and from there, this group eventually made it back to England.
