Since Brig Copenhagen was only four days out of
Liverpool, there remained a distance to cover. Because
it was November, 15 according the ships log, conditions
might worsen. Even if the weather improved that saw better
skies, menace of icebergs remained. Before this consignment
of tea to Halifax, Brig Copenhagen had plied the North Sea,
that is to say she transported goods between European
countries. Such trade was good. Though trade was good, the
ship owners wanted still greater profit that could be theirs by
taking tea to Halifax and then transporting passengers out of
Boston around the Horn to California where gold had been
discovered.
