must
have
been
highly
prized
by
the
Putt
family
who
had
limited
space
to
bring
it
with
them
on
the
William

This
sturdy
piece
survived
the
journey
but
many
others
were
not
so
lucky.
Richard
Chilman,
who
travelled
on
the
same
ship,
unpacked
to
find
most
of
his
crockery
broken
in
transit
including
his
mother’s
treasured
dinner
service.
