Social History

1865 The Argus

BLACK PRINCE, from Leith.
This ship having been reported at Custom-house, will discharge cargo alongside Sandridge Town Pier. Consignees will therefore PASS ENTRIES, present bills of lading, and pay freight to the under-signed, without delay. Arrangements have been made with Messrs. Hall and Gillespie to lighter the cargo, at current rates.
Goods not removed by 4 o’clock will be stored at consignees’ risk and expense.
