Landing Ice at Bombay

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Landing Ice at Bombay.

depicts a scene to be witnessed two or three times a year, when ice-laden ships arrive with their cargoes. The ice is removed as rapidly as possible, first, in native boats to the bunder, or landing-place, and thence in bullock-carts to the cooler regions of the ice-house. On one or two occasions the non-arrival of an ice-ship has been the cause of an ice-famine, and a consequent discomfort hard to be understood by any one who is unacquainted with Bombay, its heat, and the intense thirst caused thereby.
