The Wreck of the Strathmore: taking the Survivors from the Island...1876. Creators: W. J. P. W. H. O
The Wreck of the Strathmore: taking the Survivors from the Island, from a sketch supplied by Mr. Spencer Joslen, 1876....the emigrant-ship Strathmore [was wrecked], in July last, on the remote and desolate Crozet Islands, in the southern part of the Indian Ocean...forty-four survivors...remained there seven months. It is by the sketches which Mr. Joslen, of Maidstone, a first-class passenger in the Strathmore...that we are enabled to show so many features of that adventurous experience...[The survivors were rescued] on Jan. 21, by the Young Phoenix, an American whaling-vessel, under the command of Captain Gifford. He deserves great praise for his kindness to these distressed people and for deciding at once to take them to the Mauritius, at the cost of losing his season's fishing'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876
