TO CAPTAIN EVANS,
SHIP LIGHT BRIGADE.
Moreton Bay,
December 13, 1869.
WE, the undersigned passengers of the ship Light Brigade, on the eve of our separation from you, feel that we would have neglected our duty had we allowed ourselves to disperse without acknowledging to you our sense of your uniform courtesy and kindness. To Mrs. Evans we would also (through you) tender the expression of our sincere esteem.
During the passage, we have been convinced you have used your utmost endeavors to render us as happy and comfortable as circumstances would admit, and those of us who brought our grievances under your notice can testify of your promptness to redress them—these, and many other acts of kindness, have made impressions on our minds which time lone can efface. We would request of you to embrace an early opportunity to convey to your officers our grateful sense of their uniform civility.
We would therefore most respectfully beg your acceptance of this address, not that we believe that it can in any way recompense you, but we trust that in future years it may serve to recal to your memory a number of individuals who esteem you highly, and who are delighted to express, as with one voice, their earnest hope and fervent prayer that as it has pleased Him who created the sea and all that therein is, and who holds the winds in the hollow of his hand to prosper you in the past, so also may your future voyages be alike successful; and at the end of life's journey may you anchor in the haven of eternal repose, and rest from your labors on that "peaceful shore where tempests never rage nor billows roar."
