Ship 'BOMBAY'

ARRIVAL OF THE BOMBAY - TOWED IN BY WARSHIP

The ‘Herald’ of March 20, 1865, containsthe following account of the arrival of the Bombay:

‘Considerable excitement prevailed in thetown during the morning of Saturday, in consequence of the report which had been current that the Curacaohad been signaled in sight with a ship dismasted in tow. On arrival in harbour the ship proved to be the Bombay, Captain SELLARS. The ship had been out 111 days from the Downs, with 400 passengers and general cargo. TheBombay had fallen in with the terrific gale which had been experienced along the coast of New Zealand. Much anxiety had been felt as to the condition of the ship and passengers. We are happy to say the passengers were in the best health and spirits and that the ship was a model of cleanliness, evincing thegreatest care and attention on the part of her commander and officers.When the condition of the ship is considered, knocked about as she musthave been in the gale of two days’ duration, terrific seas running, and freighted with passengers, who had never before been so situated, calm and presence of mind and other sailor-like high qualities were necessaryto preserve discipline and prevent anything like disturbance, which in such circumstances might have been fatal. The passengers speak in thevery highest terms of their captain.
