The Cluney Castle left on Monday morning (Easter Monday) and we left on Wednesday morning, and caught her seven days out;  she is about 1,000 miles behind us now - the "Shropshire" left the day after us and passed us five days after - she has gone to Adelaide & Melbourne.  We have no W.A.S. aboard, but cargo;  the "Benalla" is somewhere behind us, Rupe might be on her.
