 | | In August 1879, bound from London to Quebec in ballast, in approximately Lat 49 N, Lon 36 W, the COLUMBIA sank after colliding with a whale; the crew was rescued by the steamer P. |
 | | On 4 December, after her masts and rigging were removed she was righted and brought to dock, but the surveyors judged her irreparable, and she was sold as a wreck shortly afterwards. |
 | | She was found to have suffered severe damage from stormy weather during the passage, and was condemned. |
