TitleIllustrated London News 1867 vol.50 page 550DescriptionThe article describes a visit by a mail steamer to Pitcairn Island, noting its renewed importance on the Panama–New Zealand route. The crew met the small, friendly community - descendants of the Bounty mutineers - who welcomed them warmly, traded fresh produce, and showed strong loyalty to Britain. The island is fertile, peaceful, and may become a future coaling station for the shipping line.Year1867Volume50Page Number550FormatNewspaper article
