The 'Corinth' in an unidentified port
The composite barque 'Corinth', 614 tons, in an unidentified port. [Composite barque 686 tons, ON63602. 165.0 x 31.1 x 18.3. Built 1870 (4) W. Pile and Co. Sunderland. Owners TB Walker registered London. Burnt at sea in 1890 when her cargo of wool loaded in Launceston ignited through spontaneous combustion, about a week out from port. The crew abandoned the burning ship in the boats and were picked up by SS Fifeshire.] A researcher at the Maritime Museum of Tasmania disputes the date that the barque was lost. It was lost on 19 February 1893 after sailing from Tasmania on 11 February. 'The error was noted when dates didn't match up - the vessel sailed from Launceston on 4 March 1890 with a similar cargo and this may have caused confusion. The rescue vessel SS Fifeshire sailed from NZ both in February 1890 and February 1893.'
