Logs of voyages of William Scott, the sixth laird., 1798, 1801-1803.
Item
Identifier: MS.2897
Scope and Contents
The entries sometimes complement and sometimes repeat those in MS.2896. They are usually of a more formal character, giving merely weather, position, and distance covered, and many appear to have been copied from other logs; e.g., those describing the passage of the Phoenix to St Helena (pages 33-40), at which island William Scott first joined her.
