Renfred Rajub was an Indian seaman on the Obra Dinn during its final voyage in 1802. He caught a fatal lung disease and died.
Story[]
Rajub was responsible for manual labour aboard the Ship. He was first seen loading cargo in Falmouth and witnessed the accident in which seaman Samuel Peters was killed.[1]
When the ship had reached the coast of Portugal, Rajub and his fellow crewmate, Soloman Syed, both picked up a fatal lung disease at the lascar house in England.[2]
In the final insurance assessment, Rajub's estate was unknown so the East India Company donated his outstanding wages worth £15 to pension fund.[3]
Identification[]

Rajub can be identified as he lies in his hammock with its tag (#51) clearly visible in A Bitter Cold, part 1.
