Lloyd Pitcher Collection. The ocean knows no favourites.

Samuel Eliot Morison Copyright © Lloyd Pitcher 2013 Revised edition 2018 ２ ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are a number of people I would like to thank for their assistance and encouragement in completing this research on the life and achievements of Captain Donald MacKinnon. I would especially like to thank Angus and Mary Maclean of the Isle of Tiree, Scotland, for their invaluable information provided to me. This has been acquired at their considerable cost of time and effort and I would like to acknowledge their generosity and kindness in being willing to share information pertaining to the MacKinnon family tree; certificates of birth, death and marriage; photographs of images of the Taeping; their knowledge of the people of Tiree; and personal observations on the meaning and significance of Donald MacKinnon's life and achievements. They have provided my research with considerable scope, depth and perspective in telling this story of Captain Donald MacKinnon and, from humble origins, his rise to fame on a highly competitive international maritime stage. I would like to thank maritime historian Angus Mac Kinnon of Troon, Scotland, for the significant information knowledge and understanding made available. Angus has undertaken substantial research into the clipper ships era of nineteenth century Britain. His understanding of the marine aspect of nineteenth century British seagoing endeavour is most impressive. I would like to acknowledge his generosity and kindness in sharing information on the clipper ships in general and on Captain Donald MacKinnon in particular. It has provided my research with a scope and perspective in telling the story of Captain Donald MacKinnon and the ships on which he sailed, in the historical context of their time. Thanks also go to historian Robert Zimmerman of Maryland in the United States of America for sharing the research he has completed on the career of Donald MacKinnon. His knowledge has been very helpful in understanding the nature of the achievements attained in Captain MacKinnon's career. Thanks also to Dr Ewen Griffiths for sharing his detailed medical knowledge and insights into the nature of the Psoas abscess, the malady to which Captain Donald MacKinnon succumbed in Cape Town on 19 January 1867. The information provided by Dr Griffiths has been invaluable in gaining an understanding of the medical circumstances in which the Captain died. I wish also to acknowledge the continuing interest in this project provided by my cousin, Audrey Houseman. One of her mother’s prized possessions was a small framed print of the Taeping. The unexplained disappearance of this print was the cause of some disappointment. A replacement copy was located from a photograph of the print taken by Lloyd Pitcher in 1975 and presented to Audrey in 2013. This list of acknowledgements would not be complete without the recognition of the long term patient support of my wife Robin. Her excellent photographic and computer skills have been of utmost importance in representing images of buildings, ships and people referred to in this story. ３ I wish also to recognise the initiative of my great aunt, Christina Cameron Murray, the sister of Donald MacKinnon’s wife, Margaret Anne Murray. Christina wrote letters and sent photographs to her brothers Archibald Murray and Hugh Cameron Murray, both of whom lived in Sydney, Australia. Much use has been made of this information in detailing Donald MacKinnon’s story. In keeping letters, documents and photographs with the family, the foresight of my grandmother Florence Pitcher has been invaluable. For generations, the meaning of these items was not known and it is fortunate that the meaning of what she kept is now known. The existing MacKinnon family photographs are the only ones currently verified as being genuine representations of MacKinnon family members. Thanks also go to Lori Victorsen of Queensland, Australia. Her contribution to Donald MacKinnon’s story is with six letters sent from Christina Cameron Murray in Scotland to her brother Hugh Cameron Murray in Sydney, Australia. These letters provide a valuable insight into the people of past times and how they celebrated family connections and endured economic hardship and family loss. The letters were not known about until an internet connection was established in 1992. The information provided about the Gaelic language I have is courtesy of Fiona NicFhionghain (Fiona MacKinnon) of Tobar an Dualchais/Kist o Riches. Thanks also go to An Iodhlann, the Historical Centre on the Isle of Tiree. They hold much information on Captain Donald MacKinnon and the Taeping. I have made every effort to acknowledge the sources of the images I have used. At all times I have respected copyright and have not intentionally intended to circumvent it. ４ TABLE OF CONTENTS Page INTRODUCTION………………………………………………………… 5 1. EARLY DAYS………………………………………………………… 8 2.

The achievements of people in the past occurred in a very different society from that in which we live today. In his 1953 novel The Go- Between, LP Hartley wrote these opening lines. The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there. Indeed, they do. This story of the life and achievements of Captain Donald MacKinnon (Dòmhnall MacFhionghain) has been a long time in the making. It is a window on a very different time and on very different places. A few photographs, some documents and a letter were the starting point of this research in 1968. Family members had little knowledge of the significance of what had survived or of the people to whom references were made. This left many questions unanswered, such as who was Donald MacKinnon, why was he a significant person and what was special about this sailing ship Taeping? It was the development of the Internet which accelerated progress in understanding the events and people of the past. First, access to a wide range of information became much easier and links to sources of knowledge could be established more efficiently. Second, the Internet allowed people to contact and to communicate with each other and to transfer information from one side of the world to the other, quickly. Sufficient detail is now available to present a narrative of Donald MacKinnon's life and achievements. Much existing information available focuses on perhaps his greatest achievement, the winning of the Great Tea Race of 1866 from Foochow (modern Fuzhou) in China to London, England, in the tea clipper Taeping. This race is generally agreed to be the most exciting race in the history of the China tea clippers. But there is much more to know than the story of this one race. Donald’s boyhood

We had a fantastic visit to the clipper ship “The City of Adelaide” with a very enjoyable lunch overlooking the water in Port Adelaide. If you missed it, you missed a great afternoon. Check out the pictures in this newsletter. We had a lovely party at Marty’s house for Australia Day. Ray Winterfield brought his guitar and we had a sing -a-long. We shared good food and fun. Another “no cost” function to members. We, again, had a really memorable Coral Sea celebration. This is so important to our association and the other associations which help us remember the connection with Australia and America. My only wish is that more of our members would take part and share this auspicious occasion with us. Check the newsletter pictures. We have said “Good-bye” to Nancy and Bill Schaff as they have moved to Hawaii. They always came to functions, gave good support for ideas and helped when needed. We will miss them but wish them all the best. Dr. Lage is still on her travels back and forth across the US. From the reports I have heard, she is enjoying herself very much.

  • American Enterprise in the 19Th Century
    ANTH318 Nautical Archaeology of the Americas Class 24 th American Enterprise in the 19 Century Introduction During the 1800s, millions of Europeans made the New World their new homeland, and brought the technological revolution going on in Europe to America. In the beginning of the century, immigrants sailed in wooden ships that would take from 4 to 12 weeks to cover the distance between the two continents. By the end of the century, there were regular packet lines, and immense steam ships covered that distance in 5 days. Transatlantic telegraphic cables provided almost instantaneous inter-continental communications. During this time, the American merchant fleet sailed all the world's seas in search of new markets and products. Importing pepper, tea, silk, coffee, porcelain, fur, leather, wood, ivory, spices, iron, textiles, gum copal, and slaves, and exporting fish, lumber, textiles and leather goods, American ships crossed all the seas and helped to complete mapping the planet. The New England whaling fleet discovered more than 400 islands in the Pacific Ocean. Centered in New England in the beginning of the century, the American shipbuilding industry gained such a fine reputation that ships would be purchased with their cargo in foreign ports. Coastal trade During the 18th century, the coastal trade was carried on by sloops, ketches, and small square-rigged vessels. In the 19th century this trade, and some of the long sea trade, would be carried on two- masted schooners. The fore-and-aft rig was more weatherly, allowing better sailing angles into the wind, and required smaller crews since the sails were operated from the deck rather than aloft.

    Überreicht vom Verfasser. Ostasiatische Decapoden. V. Die Oxyrhynehen und Schlussteil. (Geographische Übersicht der Decapoden Japans.) Von Heinrich Balss, München. (Mit 1 Tafel und 2 Textfiguren.) Abdruck aus dem Archiv für Naturgeschichte44. Herausgegeben von Embrik Strand ord. Professor der Zoologie und Direktor des Systematisch-Zoologischen Instituts der Universität Riga «0. Jahrgang 1924 Abteilung A 5. Heft Ausgegeben im September 1924. NICOLAI SC HE VERLAGS -BUCHHANDLUNG R. STRICKER Berlin. Beiträge zur Kenntnis der Lokomotion der Arachniden. 19 Nachtrag während der Korrektur. Durch die Liebenswürdigkeit des Herrn Dr. Penther erhielt ich zwei Exemplare von Eurypelma rubropilosa Auss. aus der Sammlung des naturhistorischen Museums zu Wien. Herr Dr. E. Hesse (Berlin), überließ mir gütigst ein Exemplar von Pterinochilus murinus Pocock. So konnte ich feststellen, daß die Gelenke tetrapneumoner Spinnen in allen wesentlichen Teilen mit denen der Dipneumones übereinstimmen. Die Coxen bilden mit dem Rumpfe ein unechtes Gelenk. Sie inserieren mit einer schmalen, ringförmigen Gelenkhaut, die nirgends durch einen Kondylus unterbrochen ist. Die Rumpfgelenke der Agaleniden Tegenaria und Coelotes sind ganz ähnlich gebaut. Die Coxa hat zwar eine pfannenartige Bildung, aber das Sternum trägt keinen Vorsprung, der den Gelenkkopf dazu bilden könnte. Bei Trochosa terricola Thor., Pirata piscatorius (Clerck) und Lycosa tarsalis Thor, fand ich ähnliche Verhältnisse, nur war die Pfanlie viel schärfer ausgeprägt. Im Gegen- satz dazu besitzen Clubiona pallidula Clerck und Cl. caerulescens L. Koch am Sternum spitze Vorsprünge, die in die Pfanne der Coxa eingreifen. Dasselbe ist bei den Dysderiden Harpactes lepidus C. L. Koch und Segestria senoculata Lin. der Fall. Am stärksten fand ich dies Gelenk bei Dysdera ausgeprägt. Ich werde dies alles in einem besonderen Aufsatze mit Abbildungen klarlegen.
