"We sailed from Greenock upon the 29th of April, at five a.m. The ship got ashore upon Wednesday, May 2nd, at midnight, about twelve miles south of Dublin, near the mountains of Wicklow. I was awake at the time and felt the shock; I was instantly on deck. It had rained hard and so dark we couldnot perceive an object at arm's length, but in a few minutes the stars appeared and to our horror we saw the rock twice mast high. I gave up all for lost, but concealed my apprehensions, and seemed not concerned, that I might encourage those about me, whose condition is easier conceived than described. However, we got off the next day at eleven o'clock, in a miraculous manner, with the assistance of two officers, and two boat's crews, belonging to the revenue cutter who came on board at daylight, armed to defend us from being plundered, not knowing our strength. On Saturday the 5th we were overtaken by a storm and the whole got sick...arrived at Quebec, upon Saturday, 16th of June at four o'clock, making a disagreeable passage of 48 days, ten hours."

"There are a great deal of people lodging here in temporary huts. There is a great deal of trouble and a number of deaths, owing to the heat of the weather and a change of food. We are all in good health, except little James. My health is better than it has been for some years past. I laid off my flannels at sea and felt no inconvenience; I have felt no rheumatism since."

"There are a great mumber who have not got land yet, and they say, they will not get it until another township is surveyed. The evil is, in going into the woods so late in the season, it will be impossible for them to get their heavy luggage with them as they will have to carry everything on their backs."

Census:
James Gilmour was still on his lot at the time of the 1834 inspection report, but his family was 'scattered in Ontario'. The land he drew was considered worthless.
