Brothers Pride
Ship: 1236 tons
Captain: Sproul
Surgeon Superintendent:
Sailed London 25th July 1863 - arrived Lyttelton December 10th 1863
When the Brothers' Pride, flying the
yellow flag, dropped anchor at Lyttleton on December 10th, 1863, the melancholy
intelligence of the death of forty-four persons having occurred during the voyage soon
reached shore. The vessel sailed from London with 371 Government immigrants, and
experienced a rough passage, but no serious damage was done to the ship. Both vessel and
passengers on arrival were placed in quarantine.
