John Gunn
John Gunn, a Cardiff businessman, bought the steamers of Edwards, Robertson and Co in October 1895 with the intention of continuing a substantial competition to the dominant P and A Campbell company. The Gunn operation lasted three years, in which time, Lord Tredegar and Lorna Doone had been sold, and in March 1899, Bonnie Doon and Scotia passed into the Campbell fleet.
