    wonderful story, I was impressed with the early photos of the steamer. Many of those yellowish black and white prints are like art to me.
    The people setting up the shot waiting for the ship to get to the dock had the time and thought about the place the camera needed to be for that really great photo. Thank you for posting.

    When the America was wrecked, the Booth Fish Co. used a smaller fish tug to keep the trade connection with Isle Royal going. The tugs name was the
    HOLLIS M. built in 1909 by American Ship Building Co. at Lorain Ohio. The Hollis M. was eventually sold on into Canadian Registry in 1937, and was
    renamed GLEN G. It went on to have a long list of owners including myself (1991- 2007 ), and from what I last heard is somewhere up in Midland, Penitanguisheene Ontario ( Georgian Bay ) area as of 2021. She has a beautiful hill, much reminiscent of a sailing ship, that can be fully appreciated when
    she’s in a dry dock. I never considered myself the owner of the boat, just friend trying to help it keep going for as long as I could. Just one of many before me.

    Its mph on inland waters, knots are on the ocean, it can be confusing...

    ...like Murdoch on the Titanic, the 1st mate found something to run into in the middle night, and everybody but the dog got off safe....can't believe the dog didn't make a swim for it....

    Gentleman has his knots and miles per hour reversed. Fascinating look back on a time long past, sadly.

      Yes, I caught that as well - so did she do 19 mph or 19 knots?...:)

    I never heard of The America.
    Sad, but sounds like corruption.
    BAD MOTIVES. Poor Puppy💔
