    3. Pam The London Times of Feb 7, 1851 has an ad for this ship: FOR ADELAIDE and PORT PHILIP, to sail 25th February, the magnificent frigate-built, Indiaman CITY of MANCHESTER, 1,800 tons; loading at the Jetty, London Docks. This splendid vessel has very great height between decks, and offers unri- vailed accommodation to cabin and intermediate passengers. Inter- mediate passage, £15. She will call at Plymouth, and carry an expe- rienced surgeon. Apply to Fry and Davison, 113, Fenchurch-street. That is all I can find on her. Regards..
