From San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua

Passage

Tuesday, April 21, 1863, Daily Alta California, San Francisco

The opposition steamer Moses Taylor, arrived Monday afternoon, at 2 oclock. Note: She was part of the People's Opposition Steamship Line connecting California and New York via Nicaragua. She was scheduled to turn right around and sail out of San Francisco on the 23rd, however, "In order to give time for the arrival of the U.S. Gunboat at San Juan to protect the transit," she was detailed until Thursday, April 30. This was during the Civil War, the French had marched into Mexico, the British were in China repressing "rebels," Egypt was undergoing some political strife, and there were riots in New York. 

Memoranda.

Saturday, April 11th, 12 M., passed steamer Golden Age, 85 miles east of Acapulco. All well on board; no sickness, no deaths, since leaving New York.
