More detailed account on the Scotiana website scotiana.com/betty-mouats-lone-voyage-a-miraculous-survival-2
If you have access to online digitized newspapers, I would suggest searching that data based for Elizabeth Mouat, 1886. You'll find all sorts of stories. The longest one I found was in an Aberdeen newspaper. They devoted four entire news columns to the story.
