Strange Coincidence or POE-tic Prophecy?

In the 19th century, the famous horror writer, Egdar Allan Poe, wrote a
book called 'The narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym'. It was about four
survivors of a shipwreck who were in an open boat for many days before
they decided to kill and eat the cabin boy whose name was Richard
Parker.
Some years later, in 1884, the yawl, Mignonette, foundered, with only
four survivors, who were in an open boat for many days. Eventully the
three senior members of the crew, killed and ate the cabin boy. The
name of the cabin boy was Richard Parker.
