Maritime History of the Great Lakes

Clinton (Steamboat), 25 Jan 1855

Description
Full Text

The remains of the old steamer CLINTON, which we thought buried long since, have been resuscitated and brought back into active life again. The engine and boiler were taken out some time ago. The decks have been taken off and by using steam pumps and corking as much as possible they managed to keep her afloat. She is to be used as a transit of freight across the river, and towed by one of the steamers. - Toledo Blade
