  • Nightingale var ett extremt klipperskepp byggt 1851 i Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Hon gjorde flera rekordresor på Fjärran Östern och runt Kap Horn till San Francisco. Därefter såldes Nightingale till Rio de Janeiro och blev ett slavskepp. 1861 stoppades fartyget utanför Kabinda i Angola, och samma år konfiskerades hon av USA:s flotta. Efter femton år under amerikansk flagg såldes Nightingale till en redare i Sydnorge. Hon byggdes om till fullriggare och gick på timmertraden över Nordatlanten till 1893. På en resa till Halifax övergavs hon, efter att ha skadats under en storm. Besättningen reste vidare med ett annat fartyg. (sv)
