The Late Mr. Henry Gildersleeve, Esq. - settled in Kingston in 1816; shortly afterwards he launched the Frontenac, the first steamboat that ever ( ) on any of these great inland seas, which is now covered by some of the noblest vessels in the world. At the same time he built the Charlotte...."The Charlotte lost money for a couple of years, which determined Mr. Gildersleeve himself to take command of her, which he did; and by his judicious management she paid large dividends to the stockholders; and also, out of the profits, the Sir James Kempt, Prince of Wales, Gildersleeve, and New Era were successively built. He had also recently commenced building another steamer, to be called the Bay of Quinte. This steamer is now in progress at the Kingston Marine Railway Company's Shipyard; and he confidently expected her to excel all predecessors, as each of his others did in their respective ages."

"It is a circumstance worth remarking, that Mr. Gildersleeve's steamers on the bay were the only ones that ever did more than pay expenses."
