Note 22 — Chapter IX
George Windsor Earl translation
This vessel, in all probability, was either the British colonial brig "Lady Nelson," or the trading schooner "Stedcombe," both of which left Melville Island in the year 1824, soon after the formation of our settlement there, to procure stock, and were never heard of afterwards. It will be seen in Chapter XIII. that the other was cut off by the natives of the east side of Timor Laut.—Translator.
