[from Liverpool Mercury - Tuesday 07 September 1858]:
SUPPOSED LOSS OF THE AUSTRALIAN PASSENGER SHIP ULTONIA, WITH 180 SOULS. - For several weeks the most painful anxiety has prevailed respecting the fate of the Australian passenger ship Ultonia, Captain William L. Baker, of 1341 tons register, belonging to Messrs. Moore and Co., of this town. In September last year she was chartered to Messrs. Fry and Davison for a voyage to Melbourne, loaded in the East India Docks, and on the 3rd of a November she was cleared by the London emigration officers, having on board 123 steerage passengers, families, and six cabin passengers; her crew, including master and officers, numbering 54. She passed through the Downs on the 6th of November, and proceeded on her voyage, although somewhat tardily, and on the 15th of March she was spoken with in lat. 15 S., lon. 52 W., [sic] a considerable distance to the southward of the Cape [Lloyd's List of 10 August 1858 gives spoken on 21 Feb at 15 S, 38 W which makes more sense]. Since then not the least tidings have been heard of the ship or of any of her numerous passengers.
