Framed Print of The Running Down of the Brigantine Virtue by the Resolute Transport, in Kingstown Harbour, 1856. Creator: Smyth. The Running Down of the Brigantine Virtue by the Resolute Transport, in Kingstown Harbour, 1856
The Running Down of the Brigantine Virtue by the Resolute Transport, in Kingstown Harbour, 1856. It appears that the transport screw-steam-ship Resolute...arrived in Kingstown harbour [Dun Laoghaire, Ireland] at four o'clock in the afternoon from Liverpool, having on board a detachment of the Royal Artillery [British Army soldiers] for Limerick. As she was making for the jetty, owing to the strong south-easterly wind which was blowing at the time, coupled with some mismanagement on board, she ran against the brigantine Virtue, from Cardiff bound to Drogheda, having on board 50 tons iron and 43 tons coal, and sunk her. She also ran against the contract steamer St Columba, and damaged her slightly. The value of the brigantine's cargo was about £540. Immediately after the catastrophe the topmasts of the brigantine only were visible above the water'. From Illustrated London News, 1856.
