Coleridge sails for the Mediterranean aboard the Speedwell

Coleridge traveled to Sicily and Malta in 1804; a legacy row records a 4 April 1804 Portsmouth departure aboard the Speedwell, unverified by supplied passages.

The supplied passages confirm only that Coleridge traveled to Sicily and Malta in 1804. A legacy row records a departure from Portsmouth aboard the Speedwell on 4 April 1804, but no supplied passage states the date, the port, or the vessel, so these details are attributed to the legacy row and remain unverified. Portsmouth is a port city in Hampshire, England, with a centuries-old Royal Navy dockyard and base.
