"Den 1 August 1849 wurde ich zu Batavia von dem damaligen holländischen Admiral der die Seemacht in Ostindien kommandierte nur dem holländischen Kriegsschiffe Kurrier angestellt um darauf die Reise nach China und Californien mitzumachen und von da entweder wieder zurück nach Batavia oder um dem Cap Horn herum nach Holland. Da wir vorher wussten dass die Reine eine sehr lange werden würde und wegen zu langer Entbehrung von frischer Nahrung für das Schiffsvolk viele Krankheiten und namentlich Scorbut zu befürchten seien wurden Vorkehrungen getroffen um diesem Uebel so viel als möglich vorzubeugen. Es wurde namentlich darauf gesehen da" die Viktualien wie gesalzene" Fleisch Brod Erbsen Bohnen &c. von der besten Sorte seien ausserdem wurden 20 Fässer mit eingemachten Gurken mitgenommen und für die etwaigen Kranken versahen wir uns mit 30 Flaschen Citronensaft und einer grossen Menge blecherner Gefässe worin Suppen bereits gekochte Gemüse und Fleisch hermetisch verschlossen waren. Die Austheilung der Viktualien auf holländischen Kriegsschiffen ist gewöhnlich folgende: Sonntag: Pudding von weissem Mehl dabei eingesalzenes Rindfleisch. Montag: Erbsensuppe von getrockneten grünen Erbsen mit gesalzenem Schweinefleisch. Dienstag: Reis mit gesalzenem Rindfleisch. Mittwoch: Bohnen mit eingesalzenem Schweinefleisch. Donnerstag: Sauerkraut mit gesalzenem Schweinefleisch. Freitag: Erbsensuppe von getrockneten gelben Erbsen mit eingesalzenem Rindfleisch. Sonnabend: Wie Mittwoch. Des Morgens essen sie entweder gekochten Reis oder Gerste mit Butter und Zucker oder sie trinken Kaffee mit Brod und Butter dazu. Des Abends Thee mit Brod und Butter. Ausserdem erhalten die Matrosen täglich zwei Portionen Genever des Morgens unmittelbar nachdem sie aufgestanden sind und des Mittags vor dem Essen. Ferner bekommen sie Pfeffer Salz Essig und Senf verabreicht. Die Schiffsmannschaft bestand aus 103 Köpfen die meisten darunter waren 4-6 Jahre hintereinander in den holländisch - ostindischen Colonien gewesen hatten viele Krankheiten überstanden namentlich biliöse und intermittirende Fieber Dysenterien und Syphilis und in Folge davon viel Quecksilber geschluckt viel salivirt und hierdurch hatten viele bereits eine Prädisposition für den Scorbut auf die Reise mitgenommen."
