A large crowd gathered on Water Street and the wharf to witness the departure of the Belle Prince and accompanying boats.

An Auditor’s clerk attempted to board but missed the gangplank, later joining guards on the passenger deck. The vessel eventually headed downstream without further incident as the State government party departed.
