Re: [TSL] "The City of Manchester" England to Australia 1851

The London Times of Feb 7, 1851 has an ad for this ship:

FOR ADELAIDE and PORT PHILIP, to sail
25th February, the magnificent frigate-built, Indiaman CITY of
MANCHESTER, 1,800 tons; loading at the Jetty, London Docks. This
splendid vessel has very great height between decks, and offers unri-
vailed accommodation to cabin and intermediate passengers. Inter-
mediate passage, £15. She will call at Plymouth, and carry an expe-
rienced surgeon. Apply to Fry and Davison, 113, Fenchurch-street.

That is all I can find on her.

Regards..

Marj
