Summary

Bow and side view of 'P.S. Rob Roy' with firewood ready to load, and other paddle steamers and barge, at river bank near Wentworth on the Darling River. A researcher has noted that the steamer moored directly behind the Rob Roy is the Excelsior & the one behind that is the Lancashire Lass, while the barge appears to have 'Swan' written just back from the stem.
