Lady of the Lake (brig)
''Lady of the Lake'' was an Aberdeen-built brig that sank off the coast of Newfoundland in May 1833, with the loss of up to 265 passengers and crew.〔"Wreck of the Lady of the Lake". ''The Courier'' (Middlesex, London). July 4, 1833.〕〔"Distressing Shipwrecks". ''The Republican Compiler'' (Gettysburg, Pennsylvania). June 18, 1833.〕
==Sinking==
The vessel had departed from Belfast on April 8, 1833, bound for Quebec. At 8:00 a.m. on May 11, 1833, ''Lady of the Lake'' was struck by ice on the starboard bow and began to sink, about 250 miles east of Cape St. Francis, Newfoundland. One of the lifeboats capsized shortly after lowering, with the loss of an estimated 80 individuals. ''Lady of the Lake'' continued to sink with about 30 passengers clinging to the maintop mast. The survivors spent 75 hours in an open boat before being rescued by the ship ''Amazon''.〔〔(1833 - May ), National Research Council of Canada.〕

(1848).
