Sailed Glasgow February 19th 1883 - arrived Otago May 23rd 1883

A month after the loss of the Wild Deer on the Irish Coast, in 1883, The Caroline, a fine powerful ship of 984 tons, chartered by the Shaw Savill Co., sailed from Greenock with 240 out of 300 of the passengers rescued from the wreck of the Wild Deer, and had a favourable passage to Port Chalmers. The Caroline sailed on February 19, under the command of Captain Hardy, and arrived at her destination on May 23, 1883, after a good run of 92 days, port to port, and 82 land to land. She crossed the equator when 21 days out from Scilly, rounded the Cape on April 19, and sighted Stewart's Island on May 21.
