After leaving a small party at Indented Head , Batman returned to Launceston in the Rebecca and announced his treaty to the colony at large. John Helder Wedge , who was also a member of the Port Phillip Association , then sailed to Port Phillip in ''Rebecca'' to explore the country, landing at Indented Head and then sailing up the Yarra River , which he named. The fate of ''Rebecca'' has not been recorded. There is a monument to ''Rebecca'' at Rosevears, in the Tamar Valley, in Tasmamia, recording its role in the founding of Melbourne. |
