Mary Celeste (1872): should the logbook crew count note, marked 10, decide before a later retelling?

Open Mary Celeste at the logbook crew count note from 1872 and keep the figure 10 inside the Evidence chapter before you accept a later retelling. D.B. Cooper stays in Evidence only as a contrast you can already open on this atlas. This is public-record reading, not legal advice, and not a how-to. The decision is which existing page to trust, not a new seven-chapter clone.

Decide Mary Celeste from the 1872 logbook crew count note and the figure 10 in Evidence. Use D.B. Cooper in Evidence only as contrast. A later retelling that drops 10 does not replace the dossier you can already open.

Open the existing chapter · Mary Celeste / logbook crew count (10)

Open the Evidence chapter of Mary Celeste and write 10 beside 1872 on the logbook crew count note before you accept a later retelling. A figure that leaves that chapter is no longer the basis of the decision you can defend.

Keep the figure attached · Mary Celeste / logbook crew count (10)

Keep 10 attached to Mary Celeste and to the logbook crew count note in Evidence. If a later retelling moves the figure onto D.B. Cooper or onto a different year, put it back on the page that already exists.

Stay inside the limit · Mary Celeste / logbook crew count (10)

This is public-record reading, not legal advice, and not a how-to. The logbook crew count note is a way to read Mary Celeste around the figure 10. It does not add a method, a rank, a cure, or a promised result beyond that page.

Use the second page as contrast · Mary Celeste / logbook crew count (10)

Open D.B. Cooper in Evidence only to see a different existing page. Do not let that page supply missing facts for the 1872 logbook crew count note on Mary Celeste. Two dossiers side by side are still two dossiers.

This is public-record reading, not legal advice, and not a how-to. Check 10 on Mary Celeste in the Evidence chapter before you act on a later retelling.

Does the logbook crew count note replace the Mary Celeste dossier?

No. The note tells you to read the Evidence chapter of Mary Celeste first and to keep 10 beside 1872. The dossier remains the source.

Can D.B. Cooper override the figure 10?

No. D.B. Cooper is only a contrast in Evidence. It cannot erase 10 on the logbook crew count note.

What if a newer later retelling ignores 1872?

Keep both dates. A later later retelling does not delete 1872. Return to the Evidence chapter and write down the clash instead of keeping the louder version.
