Arrivals at the Port of Quebec, 1831
The following information on arrivals, due to the condition
of the papers, has been taken from
various sources including the Montreal Gazette MG, Montreal
Herald MH,
and the Canadian Courant & Montreal Advertiser CC.
note: if
ships' rigging or name of Master unpublished, it is indicated by -- (The newspapers
were often
filmed within their binding, making one side of some entries, unreadable, or
only partly legible. This can lead to errors in the interpretation of the entry
or missed entries. ) Be aware that there may be two or more ships of the same
name, from the same, or different ports, during the same year. A few ships also
made two trips in 1831.

The latest accounts from Quebec mention that the ice above
Cap Rouge still held ; however, the Waterloo and the Lady
of the Lake steamers left this morning for Quebec, their Masters,
being fully confident of attaining the capital without interruption,
as the ice could not possibly remain after the warm weather we
have experienced during the past week. |

Captain Collins, of the William, which is the first vessel
that has sailed from Liverpool for this country, reports the
Artemis, Margaret, Unicorn and Sir
John Beresford, to sail thence
for this port, on the 26th March. The vessels arrived saw no
ice in the Gulf or River.
The Nemesis, anchored here on Saturday evening at ten o'clock
after a passage of 21 days. The Merope sailed in company, and
the Procris, with passengers was to sail on the 31st. The Nemesis made Cape Breton seven days ago, saw no ice in the gulf, but
a good deal above Bic. |

Extract of a letter dated Quebec, Monday afternoon:— "I
have just ascertained that the Steamboat Waterloo was struck
this morning by ice near Carouge, and immediately filled with
water and sunk ; the passengers saved themselves by getting on
a piece of ice."
The passengers by the Lady of the Lake arrived on Monday afternoon
at Quebec, having landed at St. Augustin, about thirteen miles
above, not being able to get further owing to the ice at Carouge. |
|
On Monday last about noon, a fine ship [of 312 tons], was launched
from the yard of James E. Campbell, Esquire, at Hochelaga [Montreal].
We never recollect to have seen a vessel enter the element she
was about to grace with her presence, in better style. She was
named the Royal William, and after having shipped her rudder,
was towed up into port the same day by the John Molson steamer.
[from the April 28 issue] ... ; she is a beautiful vessel, of
about 500 tons we suppose, most substantially built, upon a model
of the beat sea vessels of the kind ; she will be ready to sail
before the middle of summer. She takes in her engine at Montreal
... [see articles about the Royal
William] |

after which she will be towed by the British America to the wharf
opposite the foundry of the Messrs. Ward, where her engines will
be put on board. |

The account mentioned in our last, relative to the loss of
the Waterloo, has been confirmed by further
details, which have since reached us. Early in the morning of
Monday, she was struck
with heavy fields of ice, which had apparently become detached
from the banks of the River some distance above ; the great force
with which these drifted down upon her soon caused a leak, and
by the afternoon, she sunk, it is said, in sixty feet of water.
Nothing of her cargo is saved, and the passengers escaped with
some difficulty, by taking refuge on the ice and floating with
it until they obtained assistance from shore. No letters had
been received yesterday from the Captain from whom minute particulars
are expected.
Our Quebec Correspondent, in a letter of Wednesday afternoon,
states that one of the boats belonging to the Waterloo passed
with the Chaudiere ice in the fore part of that day ; and that
accounts had been received from tolerable authority that the
Lady of the Lake was on the rocks at St. Nicholas above the Chaudiere. |
|
| The steamboat Lady of the Lake arrived in port [Montreal] yesterday
morning, from Quebec, being the first arrival from below. She
was not as much injured during the recent moving of the ice near
St. Nicholas as was at first imagined, as she lay within a small
bay, while the Waterloo was exposed to the pressure
of the floating ice. |
