About this event:
The Briggs Project story is about an archaeological discovery of a wooden schooner that carried slaves to freedom. As the story goes the ship was jumped by slave hunters one night, the crew overpowered, and the vessel burned to the waterline. Is this schooner found off of the Indiana border shores of lake Michigan the same ship?
