BIOGRAPHY: The preceding Journal lists all the cases of sickness on board the Mary female con victs ship during the time the Convicts were on board and if we except the children there wa s no fatality nor indeed much sickness, and two of these cases only proving obstinate.
The young children however suffered much, out of 28 embarked six poor creatures fell sacrific e to the iniquity of their mothers, their death may be readily accounted for in the deprivati on of their natural nourishment: some of them being very young, and in a very bad state o f health when they came on board add to which, they were bereaved of their natural food by th eir mothers losing their milk very soon after they embarked and no appropriate substitute bei ng on board, their bowels either from deficiency of food or the use of improper food (or probably both) became .........., and every means that could be be devised of restoring them to a healthy state were ........to, but every one proved equally unsuccessful.

BIOGRAPHY: It will be seen by the ...................., that scurvy never showed itself in any form which may be attributed to the lower deck, or prison, having been kept perfectly clean and dry, although we had much rough weather, particularly from the Cape of Good Hope to Van Diemens Land, the convicts being allowed free access to the upper deck, and indeed often co mpelled when they would not come up voluntarily, from day light in the morning to sunset, when the weather would permit, together with the cleanliness, order and regularity which they were at all times obliged to observe, contributed in no small degree towards it.
