Back again Elaine,

There’s an article in the Brisbane Courier, 7th April, 1888, page 5, concerning the arrival of the Merkara but you’ll have to browse to it. Possibly other articles about the same time a search may pick up.

You can’t beat old newspapers.

All the best,
Alan

Yes Alan. Between the Brisbane Courier and 19th Century British Papers I am nearly cross eyed !!!! Great fun though.
