WRECK OF THE WARREN
HASTINGS...
The story of the Birkenhead is household word, that of the Sarah Sands is an epic of bravery and coolness in the Euce of dan gers, but the story of the Warren Hastige is less well-known. Yet, In its thrills, the grimness of the tragedy, the splendid discipline maintained, the keeping up of the best traditions of the Services, the wreck of the Warren Hastings is a worthy-pendant to the two better known episodes, writes Sir Cour- tenay Bennett C.I.B. in United Empire.
The Royal Indian Marine Troop- ship Warren Hastings sailed from Cape Town on January 8, 1807, under the command of. Commander G. E. Holland, D.5.0., with the Headquarters of The King's Royal Rifle Corps, Colonel Forestier Walker commanding, and one wing of the 2nd Battalion York and Lan- caster Regiment, under Major Fitz- patrick, bound for Mauritius. In all there were 1,246 souls on board, of whom 17 were wives of officers
