marquisMarquis of Bute
This despatch, by Douglas, relates that the marquisMarquis of Bute was a British ship that visited Victoria in 1855. Several of the crew robbed the
ship and deserted. They fled to the United States where they were apprehended and
then released by Governor Stevens. The same correspondence goes on to discuss the
costs incurred in the event.
