Yes it is the correct article and it is the arrival of the ship with only the CABIN passenger named and " three hundred and forty-one in the intermediate."

This is the link that shows his listing on the passenger manifest on the CLARA SYMES

Hi Cando

I'm relatively new still to this (only 2 years searching), but it only says William Williams. How do you know it is William Blackman Williams?

I'm doing a course and they've taught me to verify everything. William Williams is a common name, hence why I've been struggling for a while trying to find info.

I do really appreciate your help as he's been a brick wall for sometime.

Kind regards
Karen

How on earth did you find this article? I've tried searching Trove and came up with nothing. I guess it's inexperience. Thanks again for your help.
