Maritime History of the Great Lakes

C. Y. Richmond (Tug), 16 Jun 1868

Description
Full Text

The hull of the tug C.Y. RICHMOND was towed into this port on the 28th of May, she having been burned to the water's edge at Crow Island, Thunder Bay, April 27th. On examination, it proved to be worthless, and her machinery was taken out at Rose & Casey's ship yard during the past and present week. The RICHMOND was a new tug, having been launched only 8 days previous to being burned. The wreck was raised by Capt. John Cotton, of Buffalo. The companies in which she was insured will probably rebuild her at this port. - Bay City Journal, 15th.
