'...the Strathmore, an iron clipper-ship, which sailed from Gravesend on April 19 last year, bound for New Zealand, was wrecked on those islands, in the southern region of the Indian Ocean, about 700 miles south-east of the Cape of Good Hope. There were eighty-eight persons on board, of whom forty-four remained on the island from July 1 to Jan. 21, when they were rescued by the Young Phoenix, an American whaler'.
