Clarissa Andrews
Captain Riddle
(another source cites Captain Andrews)
From Panama
Passage:
63 days from Panama. Fourteen passengers and crew members died during the passage.
While little information is given on the ship, a Pacific Mail Company coaler named Clarissa Andrews went down near San Diego in the mid-1850s, so it may be the same vessel, particularly given that this Clarissa Andrews is noted as carrying 250 tons coal.
Cargo: 250 tons coal.

March 22: George Buck, aged 22, from Crawfordsville, Montgomery County,
Indiana
March 25: Barnas T. Ides, aged 26, of Nelson, Portage County, Ohio
