Cardiff; W.Y. Edwards, Surveyor of Shipping: September 19, 1861.

DISCUSSION: A Surveyor's report for the ship Volant (Captain Whiting) by

The Captain had requested the bottom of the ship be examined, and the
surveyors found "Metal broken and chaffed through in several places and
Garboard Strake leaking and Bilges strained. We therefore recommend the
metal being stripped off and trenails driven out in the Bilges and
replaced also the whole of the Seams to be thoroughly caulked". The Volant
was a barque involved in the hide trade with South America.

DESCRIPTION: Folded sheet, 8"x13", some soil. Marked "Copy".

CONDITION NOTES: Minor soil, light wear, trimmed closely.

PRICE:  $65 -
