barque David
Malcolm,
538 tons, Captain Jacob W. Smith, from London
1846 & Plymouth
13th October 1846, arrived at
Port Adelaide, South Australia 23rd January
1847
South Australian News, London, Oct.
1846: The David
Malcolm, after some slight detention at Plymouth,
in consequence of some slight damage received in the Sound,
during the stormy weather, sailed, on the 13th instant, with
167 Emigrants, which, on the authority of a gentleman who
inspected them previously to departure are most carefully
inspected.
| The London Times |
Oct 12, 1846:
Naval Intelligence
Plymouth, Oct. 9.
The weather continues very bolsterous, with the wind
at S.W.
...
3 o'clock P.M.
The Sir David Malcolm, emigration ship, with emigrants
on board, has just parted her starboard chain-cable in
the Sound. She is now riding at her only remaining anchor
in the northern part of the merchant anchorage ground.
It is low water now, and, should the heavy gale blowing
from S.S.W. continue during the rising of the tide, her
position, without assistance, will be one of great danger.
October 10.
The storm from the southward continues with very little
abatement. No damage has, however, occurred in this port.
Friday, Oct 16, 1846:
Naval Intelligence
Portsmouth, Thursday..
Plymouth, Oct. 14.
We had exceedingly fine weather yesterday, with a moderate
breeze from north-west, in consequence of which the
port was nearly cleared of the numerous ships which
had sound a secure anchorage here during the late heavy
gales.
The Buckinghamshire, Captain M'Gregor, from China,
left on the 12th for London.
Her Majesty's frigate America,
50, Captain the Hon. J. Gordon, sailed yesterday for
the Mediterranean,
taking 100 boys for distribution among Admiral Parker's
fleet. The following also sailed yesterday: the Hon.
East India Company's steam frigate, Mooruffer, for
Bengal; Her Majesty's troop ship, Athol, for Bermuda
