It had left Hamburg on 6 October 1872. The 877 ton vessel carried 399 passengers. During the voyage 17 babies were born and 13 passengers died. On arrival the passengers were placed in quarantine which indicates there was disease on board. A check of records filed in the archives indicates there exists a series of letters of complaints about conditions on board during the voyage.

Notes	The arrival of the Lammershagen with German immigramts. Her unhealthy condition, and the necessity which has arisen for placing her passengers in quarantine, are circumstances which we cannot afford to pass by without endeavoring to ascertain the causes of the evil, and the remedies which it may be considered expedient to apply in order to diminish the probability of their repetition. We cannot presume to suppose that there will be any laxity of sea on the part of the officials cormected with the Immigration. Department in ascrtaining the real cause of this serious disaster. Typhoid fever, developed as it has been in this ship is not what is sometimes called, "a visitation of God". There is no room for any such impious imputation. If it is a visitation at all it is a visitation from some festering impurities generated by defective ventilation or over-crowded and unclean quarters. It is an effect which we have no doubt can be clearly traced to an efficient cause, and there will be no excuse if those to whom that cause can be traced are not held responsible for its existence. The legal pains and penalties which it may be possible to inflict are slight in comparison with the injury inflected; but the blame should be impartially adjudged, and those who deserve it should be made, as far as possible, to feel their culpability. In the meantime, it is very disheartening, sadly demoralizing to the poor emigrants themselves, that some tree hundred passengers should be landed on an island in the Bay, housed in the most insufficient manner, though doubtless in the best manner which could be devised under the circumstances, and that they should still, though now declared to be in a perfectly healthy condition, be compelled to submit to a prolonged period of isolation. The quarantine regulations do not admit we believe, of futher relaxation, and the passengers of the Lammershagen must still look forward to another dreary month on Peel Island. This "apprenticeship" we can imagine will prove no very fitting or edifying commencement for a career of colonial useftilness. In the event however, of another necessity unfortunately arising for putting in force our Quarantine laws, it seems to be incumbent on us to provide the necessary accommodation which may be required, and which 'in all civilized communities is afforded. And all this can very easily be done by devoting the buildings at Dunwich to the purpose for which they were originally designed and for which they are admirably suited. Nor do we think that the ininates of the quarters which have been diverted to the uses of a Benevolent Asylum would suffer by thus be rendered necessary. Admirably suited as they are in some respect, salubrious as is the climate, isolated as the patients are from all temptation and from the means of obtaining drink they are yet needlessly cut off from the world, deprived often of necessary medical attendance, and ahnost entirely destitute of those spiritual ministrations which are especially consolatory to the mfinn, and to those who have been deprived of all familiar intercourse with friends or relatives. The Military Barracks, which are now unoccupied, have been spoken of not iunsuitable for this purpose. The accommodation they would provide would be amply sufficient; and it would certainly be possible to try how far they might be made applicable as a temporary experiment. It would probably be found necessary to limit the occupants to much more narrow bounds, and to apply much more effective restraints than any which were put in practice when the Benevolent patients occupied the present Police-Barracks, but this is simply a matter of discipline which would only require a little intelligent attention, and we think therefore, that no time should be lost in placing the Quarantine Station at Dunwich in such a condition that it may, if necessary, be made available for the purposes originally designed. Whether the Military Barracks themselves would be suitable as a permanent Benevolent Asylum may well be a matter for further consideration. There could be little difficulty in applying them temporarily to that purpose. (The Brisbane Courier, Wednesday, January 22,1873)
