Lookup please - Ships deserter 1880

[Abygail]

Hi all,
I'm hoping that someone has access to microfische for SA Ships deserters covering 1880.
John Seeton (Seaton) from Ireland arrived/reported as deserter 2/2/1880
About 1988 I started researching my tree and at my local genealogical society confirmed what my grandmother had told me re her father's arrival in Adelaide in 1880.   Yes he was listed as a ships deserter, arrived on the "West Riding" into the Port of Adelaide, listed as an AB, he had a 5 pound bounty on him for desertion.
What I failed to do as a then novice was to make note of where the ship had sailed from and to read further to see if there was any additional information about him, and unfortunately some other person has since deemed it to be more important to their personnel collection so I am unable to access it now.
What I read early on was hand written, and was from the ships log / manifest.  I have since accessed the typed listing of ships deserters (for SA) but these don't have the additional information re bounty, date of arrival / being declared a deserter, his age, height etc.
The "West Riding" was NOT a passenger ship it was a cargo vessel and I would love to know what it destination port was and also where it sailed from.
Does anyone have this in their local society's reference material or able to access it elsewhere? 
I would really appreciate someone being able to look this up for me and let me know the extra few details.

Hi Abygail


I have scrolled through all the index on SAGHS website but can't see an arrival on that date.

Perhaps you could request some research - form available on their website.

Thanks cando,
according to the Lloyds book on shipping, the West Riding was a freight vessel, think it sailed from London possibly made in Middlesex or registered there? Wasn't clear if it sailed in Nov 1879 from London or arrived in Adelaide then.   The 2/2/1880 may have been when John Seeton was listed.   Been to the SA Library, I needed more time than I had so was only able to search for 2 hours.    Am hoping someone remembers a fische of (SA) deserters that was handwritten and listed by ship.
