Description |
English: Handwritten on verso: Atalanta 3 m. ship Capt. G. MacBride "The British clipper ship Atalanta, Tacoma for Delagoa Bay, South Africa with grain, went ashore four miles south of Alsea Bay, Oregon on November 17, her master and 22 of her crew being drowned, while only three men survived. The Atalanta, which had the unusual rig of a main skysail above double topgallant yards, was a notable sailer, having made 950 miles in three days running her easting down on one voyage, and while on a passage from Cardiff to Singapore in 1886 logged 320 and 325 miles in two consecutive days" (42).
