[QUOTE="Brokencompass, post: 1362108, member: 17742"]I feel that the paper might have been packed very securely, water resistant/ water proof to protect it from moisture that was sure to fill the ship while the ship travelled from the United Kingdom to India. May be this and the fact that the ship sank in relatively shallow water might have prevented it from becoming wood pulp. I found the following in [URL="http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/1993-09-19/entertainment/9309140516_1_paper-breda-ship"]another [/URL]article about these notes. I will write to the salvage company and ask for more information. Will post here if I hear back from them.[/QUOTE]
