The Grace Darling of Newfoundland
Was she really called the Grace Darling of Newfoundland. Her rescue was 10 years before Grace Darling's. Sounds a bit odd to me. --Tagishsimon (talk)
 * Not familiar with the origin of calling Ann Harvey, Grace Darling of Newfoundland, it has been referenced in the Encyclopedia of Newfoundland and Labrador and at this website describing the vessel Dispatch.


 * Perhaps the comparisons to Grace Darling only appeared after Ann's second rescue, which occured the same week as Grace's rescue.

Ann Harvey was called Grace Darling because when Grace was alive she saved so many people just like Ann so that's why she was called the Grace Darling of Newfoundland — Preceding unsigned comment added by Haena12 (talk • contribs) 15:52, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

Arithmetic does not add up
Follow link to Despatch page: External link to "A Chamber Opera" In this article... Current summary: Where did numbers 160, 163, 168 come from?
 * eleven crew and 200 passengers
 * rescued 160 people
 * crammed with 200 Irish immigrants (plus 11 crew)
 * saving 168 of the passengers and crew
 * rescuing ... 163 shipwrecked souls

 * more than 180 people were saved
 * Five more of the survivors died on the rock and ten more expired on land after their dramatic rescue
 * 211 crew and passengers.

Rewrite
I put the rewrite template on the page because the whole thing reads like a breathless story rather than a serious article ("resucer", "Anne sighted", "little regard for their own safety", "expired", &c.). If i get round to it i'll give it a shot; feel free to, though, if you come across this and i haven't! Cheers, LindsayHi 14:51, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
