[edit] Expansion

I've just finished expanding the history of the Tayleur to include information about the ship before the disaster, and some more details about the disaster. There were two sets of figures for souls-on-board/killed, and I deleted the inaccurate set. I also tried cleaning up the text a bit, organizing it into a more chronological order. There were a several paragraphs in different parts that tended to duplicate information (I guess that's a natural consequence of different rewrites), and so I tried to synthesize them together. In doing so, I hope I didn't step on other editor's toes...if I did, please accept my apologies. Akradecki 18:45, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
