Diary 23.6.1883


Saturday June 23


Wet morning, very windy, but we are glad to say we have got into the right track again, the Captain says he will land us next Thursday that will be fourteen weeks that we have been on the water. You will have looked into the newspaper many times to see if we have landed, we often talk about you and say Harry Fieldmouse will have been to ask Barron the agent if he has heard anything of the Nairnshire. We have not such a good log, 110 miles, Lat. 40.53S Long. 152.56E, distance from Sydney 430 miles, distance from Bundaberg 1006 miles.
