The ownership was transferred to the Hines Brothers in 1890 and renamed Denton Holme. Information in Lloyd's Shipping Register indicates that the vessel often made voyages from Liverpool or London to India.
 
On 23 June 1890 Denton Holme sailed from Glasgow to Fremantle with a cargo including 1 275 tons of iron pipes for the new Perth waterworks, cement and 250 - 300 tons of general cargo, a large portion of which appears to have been alcohol.
 
On the 25th September 1890 the vessel struck a reef at a point between Transit Reef and Kingston Spit.
