Maritime History of the Great Lakes

Madison (Steamboat), 20 Apr 1839

Description
Full Text

      The Editor of the Buffalonian was a queer genius. Charles M. Reed has done the handsome thing, and sent us his advertisements for the season and engaged us to advertise the starting notices of all his magnificent steamboats, the grand steam ships JEFFERSON and MADISON, the beautiful BUFFALO and the elegant ERIE. Mr. Reed understands how to do business. A few months ago he married a beautiful wife, and now look at his steamboats. This is real enterprise, and he will in a few years be the richest man on the lakes. The only fault we have to find with him is that he does not come and reside at Buffalo.
      Daily Chicago American,
      Saturday evening, April 20, 1839.
