Diary 17.6.1883



Sunday June 17


We have had a very rough night it has been so stormy and windy. I am glad to say Emmeline is mending again, I hope she keeps well until we get onto land. It is fine today we have been on deck about two hours with Emmeline. The Captain gave her two figs, he says she is keeping very well. After tea the moon came out, that was about 6 o’clock, it would be 9 at home, so we both went on deck, it was a very pleasant night almost like day. Lat. 43.33S Long. 135.32E. 224 miles.
