Curious report re delivery of this bucket dredger built by Wingate on the Clyde in 1860. Do we have any later details for her?

First one we seem to have details for is No 8. :(

Feel sorry for the poor lad mentioned in the third report...........

"The occurrence was purely accidental, and but for the Thoughtlessness of deceased it would not have occurred"

It is indeed very thoughtless of one to get injured or die at work.
I am sure the HSE would endorse that today .... !!
