David Crichton Rait, a noted Glasgow Silversmith
Cumberland was converted by The Clyde Industrial Training Ship Association to serve as a training ship for destitute and homeless boys from Glasgow in 1869. She was destroyed in an arson attack by young sailors at Rhu on the Gareloch in Scotland on 17 February 1889.
A fascinating piece of social history, and rare.
