There was another ship named the
Northumberland, a vessel of about 1000 tons, which visited Auckland in 1861. She left
Portland on May 21 and crossed the Line on June 13. On the 24th of the
following month, during a heavy S W gale the ship's rudder head gave way and was
completelt wrung off. Captain Hawkins put the ship under easy canvas while repairing
damages as well as circumstances would admit. On August 3 the rudder head gave way during
another hard gale which continued for 36 hours. Under the circumstances the
ship did well in making the voyage in 114 days.
