Female Emigration Debate Shows Emigration Committee Facts
A letter to defend Australian female emigration challenges a Times article. It argues the Emigration Committee vetted candidates, cites ship Bussorah Merchant with 215 women, and notes many found work quickly in Sydney. Critics say many emigrants were townsfolk unsuited to colonial farm life, some morals declined, and callers urge reform. The Times replies defend the committee’s aims and observers question motives of ship agents.
