Christian McAusland
Ship: 962 tons
Captain:
Surgeon Superintendent:
Sailed London September 13th 1872 - arrived Otago December 5th
1872
It was in 1869 that Patrick Henderson
made his first venture in iron ships. Scott, of Greenock, building him the two sister
ships Jessie Readman and Christian McCausland, of 962 tons register.
These were fine handy little ships, good for 11 knots on a taut bow-line, and equally good
off the wind. They made very good outward passages with their 'tween decks full of
emigrants, and loaded wool for home. In those early days all the New Zealand wool was
pressed on board before being stowed; this was generally done by a temporary crew of
beachcombers, as it was the regular thing for the crew to run on arrival in the Colonies,
however comfortable the ship was. The crew picked up for the run home was usually a fine
one, of real sailormen, who had tired of the land after a short spell of working ashore.
