Plow Boy (Schooner), U150040, 1 Nov 1885
- Full Text
Quite a number of Lake Ontario vessel owners have become so completely discouraged this season that they have sent their boats down on salt water to engage in the coasting trade. Last week the schooner A.J. McBRIER left Sodus for Prince Edward Island and loaded a cargo of potatoes for Baltimore, Md. She will not return to the lakes this year, but will trade along the coast as far south as Florida. The schooner PLOWBOY has also gone from Lake Ontario to Baltimore, and will go into the coasting business on Chesapeake Bay.
