Summary

[edit]
Description
English: MORNING STAR. This 1105 ton clipper ship was launched in 1853 from Portsmouth, New Hampshire. She was fine of line and heavily sparred and she made some outstanding runs. In 1863 she was captured by the Confederate privateer Alabama, but since the cargo was owned by neutrals she was released under a $60,000 bond. Shortly after this she was sold to the British and made some Australian runs for the famous Black Ball line.
