The Adventures of Captain Ambrose Farquharson, Scottish Physician, 1717

[Ambrois LeGaillard]

The day 4 October 1717, Ambrose Farquharson, minor member of the famous scottish clan Farquharson, and physician aboard to the English ship "Defiance", become the captain of this vessel, that renamed "Hyppocrates".

Changed the Naval Brig with an English barque, more suited for commerce or smuggling, Captain Farquharson named the new ship "Hermes Trismegistus" and started a lucrous activity of commerce and passengers transport.

Where's fate and time will bring the scottish physician? He will become a pirate, smuggler, or a honest trader?
He will help his own nation, or we start warring with European powers?

This is the time for great shows of valor and bravery.
