| ship Thomas Arbuthnot |
| Arrived on the 12th September with 253
Government emigrants. She was commanded by Mr. Richard
Martin, and Mr. James O’Donnell was the Surgeon-Superintendent.
Before the final disembarkation 2 births added to the
numbers originally embarked. There were no deaths. There
were by this ship 109 young women, generally of the same
class as those with whom we have become so familiar.
It gives me pleasure to state that this ship also was
in good order and under good discipline. |
