ARRIVAL OF THE S.S. DORIC. In Adventure Bay, Tasmania

Sailed from London on 22 April and from Plymouth on 24 April 1886
Captain J.W.Jennings


Transcribed from The Mercury (Hobart, Tas. : 1860 - 1954)
Friday 4 June 1886

At 9:15 p.m. yesterday a large steamer was signalled off Adventure Bay, supposed to be the S.S Doric. A telephone message sent later on stated that the pilot had left Pearson's Point to board her, but up to 2:30 this morning she had not put in an appearance in the cove. It is to be presumed that owing to the thick weather she has brought up somewhere down the river. Her arrival may therefore be looked for at an early hour this morning.
According to the Australian Times she has a large passenger list, but how many for Hobart does not appear.
