SHIP: CHARLES BARTLETT

The American brig  left the Downs for America on June 14th, 1849, with 162 emigrants, one cabin passenger and a crew of 14 under Capt. Bartlett. She carried a general cargo of about 450 tons. On June 27th the vessel ran into thick fog. At 3:30 in the afternoon, there being nearly 100 passengers on deck at the time, the British and North American Royal Mail Steam ship EUROPA suddenly appeared out of the fog and struck the CHARLES BARTLETT on her port side between fore and mainmasts. There was little time for either captain do anything to avert the disaster as the EUROPA  was steaming at about 12 knots, although she stopped her engines immediately.

Many of the unfortunate emigrants were killed instantly and in four minutes the ship had foundered taking with her 135 persons. Capt. Bartlett saved himself by jumping for the bows of the EUROPA as she struck his ship.

Every effort was made by Capt Lott and the officers of the EUROPA to save life and 42 persons were rescued. The EUROPA sustained little damage and there were no injuries to any of those on board.
