"Dear Cornelius, I left England 1842 on the ship Indus . The captains name was McKenzie, his chief mate was Young, second mate Kidd. Most of the sailors were Scots, and the cook was a black man, also the steward. We landed in the province of Nelson, New Zealand, and then came to live in Riwaka, and remained here. There are four families living in Riwaka, descendants of the name Askew, McNabb, Tutbury, Fowler, also Douglas's in Motueka."
2nd letter dated 11th may 1907.
