• This item includes a sum of £52 10s. paid to Messrs. Willis, Gann & Co., in settlement of their claim for advertising, bill posting, &c., in 1858 and 1859.

• These Families were removed from the Chariot of Fame in October last, in consequence of disease having broken out amongst the children; and they were maintained in a lodging-house, in London, until the sailing of the following ship (the Huntress) in December. Each of the men has signed an undertaking for the repayment of the entire sum paid on account.
