Morning Star arrived at Port Jackson on 10 June 1814, from Bengal carrying merchandise.

[4] Loss: On 2 or 3 July 1814, whilst on her way from Sydney to Batavia, she was totally wrecked at 12°25′50″S 143°25′18″E / 12.4305°S 143.4217°E / -12.4305; 143.4217 off the north Queensland coast.

[5] The survivors stated that on 25 September Captain Robert Smart and nine other crew had left the Island for Timor in the longboat.

Excluding the party with Smart and the five rescued by Eliza, it appears that 22 crew drowned in the wreck of Morning Star.

[6] Lloyd's List (LL) erroneously reported on 9 May 1815, that Morning Star, Smart, master, had wrecked on Booby Island in September while sailing from Port Jackson to Batavia.
