American whaler Kathleen lying in September at Mahe according to the Whalemen’s Shipping List dated Tuesday 5 December 1865

An item referred to a letter written by captain Craw on board of the bark Kathleen of New Bedford reporting that she was on 25 September lying at Mahe. The intention was to leave that day towards the Seychelles. Since the last report consisted the catch of 100 barrels sperm oil. The boats which were missing during chasing whales returned all savely.
