Error in article?

[edit]

In article comment made in this edit by Robertsond22 (talk · contribs) removed to talk page:

There is sn error below ss I have a photo of a gravestone from Glasgow Necropolis. It states that William Neilson Stirling, 31, was killed when the boat he was returning from the shore of Africa to the SS Ambriz was swamped. Could be 16th or 17 th (hard to read) August 1874. I assume his friends and family would be correct in the date.

I'm not sure what error you are referring to. The article as it stands merely relates the changes of owners and routes, and the ship's eventual loss in the 1903. If you have information about a single man from a single boat of that ship being lost in 1874, it appears in no way to contradict any of the information in the article.
