Diary 9.4.1883
Got up 7:15 breakfast at 8:30 porridge and coffee, a nice day the sun very warm we have now got into the tropics, we are going on slow as the wind is very light. Ruth Emmeline has almost found her sea legs, the first mate keeps giving her spice, and the boatswain keeps carrying her about. Emily Ann is not so very well today (At this time Emily was 3 months pregnant with Mary Ellen) although she has been making fatty cakes this morning. The log today is Lat. 19.58N, Long. 25.1W distance run 143 miles. San Anotone Island 144 miles off.
