Can anyone help read this image? Alexander Douglas died February 1870 and it says Alexander Douglas Master of ?  married to Jane Wallace.  So I am trying to find the name of the ship.

Thanks for the input Gadget.  I have tried matching up the handwriting but no good.  Hopefully someone will come up with something.  I fancy the Yachts as being the nearest yet!
