| The STAR OF INDIA departed London on 30 July, 1874 and arrived in Wellington, on | |||||||
| 10 November, 1874, with Captain Holloway in command. | |||||||
| Transcribed from the Evening Post, 10 November 1874, Page 2 | |||||||
| Star of India, ship, 1004 tons, Captain Holloway, from London was worked into harbor this morning very skillfully by Pilot Holmes and | |||||||
| anchored a short distance from the wharf. She has made the passage out in 104 days and experienced fine weather throughout. | |||||||
| The Star of India has had a remarkably fine, although rather long, passage of 104 days. She brings 374 immigrants, who are reported in | |||||||
| excellent health. Five deaths occurred during the passage, two being those of a father and child, the former committing suicide by jumping | |||||||
| overboard with the child in his arms. | |||||||
