Trips to New Zealand

The ship was chartered by Shaw, Savill and Co. on four journeys from London to New Zealand as follows:

Leaving London on 9 February 1860, arriving Lyttelton on 9 May 1860.[2] Leaving London on 7 July 1861, arriving in Auckland on 18 October 1861.[3] Leaving London on 7 December 1862, arriving in Port Chalmers, Otago on 12 March 1863.[4] Leaving London on 16 May 1864, arriving at Port of Bluff on 5 September 1864.[5]

The judgement was "The law will presume that the terms of a master's engagement for one voyage extent to a succeeding voyage performed without a new agreement express or clearly implied." [6]
