MORGAN'S
DREAM OF OLD PORT ROYAL
The
Story
The story begins in the Port Royal Lodge, its members are
jealous of the past glories of their ancient city and eager to
do their part in rebuilding what remains of it. The songs they
sing put the band's leader Alexander Morgan into a trance and
imagining himself to be Henry Morgan, he sets out to recapture
past glories.
He leads his followers with dash and daring, consorts with governors
and kings, and brings home all the fabulous treasures that were
there to be taken in those buccaneering days by the pirates whose
boldness knew no bounds.
A turn in fortune occurs when Morgan is recalled and ordered to
England and to the Tower of London, but his luck has not run out.
He is pardoned and sent back to Jamaica where he is given the
governorship of the island.
