Title Daniel Shehan, Voyage Journal, Limerick to Montreal, 1 June 1841
Description This manuscript includes the first pages which are missing from the other version of Shehan's voyage journal (although it does not contain the concluding pages). Below I have transcribed only those first pages missing from the other copy-- which has already been transcribed. The pages which are duplicated in both copies do not differ materially from one another. [Shehan writes to his parents and family of his safe arrival in Canada and describes his passage with Margaret from Limerick city via Scattery harbour, mentioning the death of a child on board their ship and birth of a baby.]
