Document
The following is an article from 1817 advertising the connection of a continuous shipping system
running from New York to Liverpool.
"In order to furnish frequent and regular conveyances for Goods and Passengers, the subscribers have
undertaken to establish a line of vessels between New-York and Liverpool, to sail from each place on a
certain day in every month throughout the year.
The following vessels, each about four hundred tons burthen, have been fitted out for this purpose:
Ship Amity, John Stanton, master,
Ship Courier, Wm. Bowne, master,
*
Ship Pacific, Jno. Williams, master,
• Ship James Monroe,
TANZANIA
And it is the intention of the owners that one of these vessels shall sail from New York on the 5th, and
one from Liverpool on the 1st of every month.
These ships have all been built in New-York, of the best materials, and are coppered and copper
fastened. They are known to be remarkably fast sailers, and their accommodations for passengers are
uncommonly extensive and commodious. They are all nearly new except the Pacific; she has been
some years in the trade, but has been recently throughly examined, and is found to be perfectly sound
in every respect.
|
The commanders of them are all men of great experience and activity, and they will do all in their
power to render these Packets eligible conveyances for passengers. It is also thought, that the
regularity of their times of sailing, and the excellent condition in which they deliver their cargoes, will
make them very desirable opportunities for the conveyance of goods.
