H.M.S. Crocodile British Military Transport. Captain George Willes Watson. From Portsmouth, England 8th June 1870 to Quebec, Que. 24th June 1870 - The emigration of unemployed Admiralty Dockyard Workers - Illustrated London News Article. (several people with families are shown as single, when they simply seem to be travelling without a spouse; these adult individuals may be widowed, but the passenger list does not indicate that status)
(picture of Crocodile)

June 30, 1870 Globe and Mail
EMIGRATION.— Yesterday afternoon 343 of the passengers of H.M.S. Crocodile, arrived in this city. The vessel brought over 906 persons in all, a large number of whom are bound west, and are expected to pass through here early this morning. Mr. Wm. Anderson, the Agent, who came out in charge, states that the trip across was a very pleasant one, and that the people behaved themselves in a most orderly manner.
 
July 08, 1870 Globe and Mail
The Ottawa Free Press of last Monday gives the following extraordinary account of the emigrants recently arrived in that quarter:—
During the past week one hundred and fifty-nine emigrants arrived in this city; 92 were passengers by the steamer Crocodile, 55 by the Medway, and 12 by the Scandinavian. They are recently from London, England, and are called the London emigrants. They appear terribly dissatisfied at the state of affairs in Canada, and complain bitterly of having been inveigled into this country by promises of wages, such as $14 per month for female general servants, and men's wages in proportion. They are not the class of emigrants required for Canada. Although offered good wages every hour of the day, they will not go to the country, and work for the farmers. The passengers by the Crocodile are especially hard to please, and Mr. Wills has his own trouble with them. He sent five families up to Huntly last week. They were of a better class than those in town at present. Several smart looking girls are now at the station; but they look for higher wages than they are likely to get in Canada, and complain bitterly of the false reports circulated in the papers of the old country. They will not think of working for less than $16 per month in the city, and as for working on a farm they would not entertain the idea for a moment. The men are engaging on the railways, buildings, and other job work in and around the city, and refuse to work on farms, so that the farmers are likely to be as hard up for workmen this season as they were last summer.
