Dilharree
Barque: 1293 tons
Captain: R. McNeilly
Surgeon Superintendent: Dr Litton Forbes
Sailed London 2nd November 1874 -
arrived Auckland 16th January 1875
Originally a full-rigged ship built
for trooping to India, the Dilharree, a composite-built vessel of 1293 tons, was rigged as
a barque when she came to New Zealand in 1874 and 1875. She was a well found craft, and
was pronounced admirably suited for carrying immigrants, as she had very roomy
accommodation, having been built for a troopship. She belonged to Messrs. J. Lidgett and
Sons, London. The first port she visited in New Zealand was Lyttleton.
