[edit] Elbert Stannard

Deletion nomination Arrrr me hearties. Gather ye round for a spine-chilling, rum-sodden, hell-bound sailor's tale of long ago - when ships were ships and men were... men - that's all about nautical mystery and skulduggerous murder most foul. 'Tis the tale of "Old But Nutmegger" himself, Capt'n Elbert Stannard, the champion sailing "contributor" to the astounding exploits of the doughty folk of the Connecticut sailing community. The circumstances were said to be... aye, suspicious. And arrrr... indeed,the body was never found. 'Tis truly uncanny. Aye, arrrr.... a horrible and salty crime which confounds all human reason even after maybe hundreds of years, maybe not... no-one really knows... the records are long lost to Davy Jones' Locker, so far as this seadog knows. The only clue is the fine ye olde bed & breakfast country inn which bears the Cap'n Stannard's accursed name!! Can YE SOLVE THE MYSTERY?!?!? (Paging whoever the Jessica Fletcher of the 19th-or-whatever century was... er... using whatever the equivalent of paging was back then. Maybe actual page-boys). Arrrr... Aye.... Anyway fails WP:RS, WP:V, WP:OR, WP:BIO. Bwithh 23:01, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
