Spirit of the Dawn (ship)
''Spirit of the Dawn'' was an iron barque of 692 tons that was wrecked in the Antipodes Islands in 1893. She was built at Sunderland in 1869 by T.R. Oswald and Co and was owned by the Messrs J. Bell and Son, Liverpool.
==The wreck and rescue==
In 1893 ''Spirit of the Dawn'' was en route from Rangoon, India to Talcahuana, Chile with a cargo of rice and under the command of Captain R T Millington. The ship encountered foggy weather in the Southern Ocean and on 4 September 1893 the ship struck rocks from the Antipodes Islands and sank. Eleven of the crew took the boats and made it ashore but five other crew, including the captain, drowned.
The survivors lived on the main Antipodes Island until they were rescued 88 days later on 30 November 1893 by the New Zealand Government Steam Ship ''Hinemoa'' under the command of Captain Fairchild. The castaways lived the entire 88 days without a fire and survived eating raw eggs, birds and roots. A castaway depot had been cached on the island but the crew never found it.
The castaways were described as being in a "desperate state" by their rescuers. One crewmember, Felix Hewbert, required hospital treatment for frostbite on his right foot. He lost two toes and the first joint of the other toes from that foot.〔
