Framed Print of Saloon of the steam-ship Quetta, 1881. Creator: W. I. Mosses
Saloon of the steam-ship Quetta, 1881. Our Illustration shows the interior of the saloon occupied by first-class passengers in this fine new steam-ship, which is advertised by Messrs. Gellatly, Hankey, Sewell, and Co. to leave the Victoria Docks, London, on Oct. 4 for Colombo, Madras, and Calcutta, by way of the Suez Canal. The Quetta was recently constructed by Messrs. Denny and Brothers, Dumbarton, and has just returned from her first voyage to Calcutta. This is another powerful vessel added to the already large fleet of the British India Association, closely allied to the better-known British India Steam Navigation Company, which has done much to open up the trade of the East...The Quetta...possesses powerful engines, capable of maintaining a speed of 14½ knots an hour. Accommodation of a very superior character is provided for eighty first-class and thirty-five second-class passengers, comprising a handsome saloon and state-rooms, boudoir for ladies, and smoking-room for gentlemen, ice-house, bath-rooms, punkahs, and every requisite for a tropical voyage'.
