Description
Here
you
can
see
some
of the
devastation
the
ice
caused
during
the
harsh
winter
of
1917-1918
. The
ferryboat
"
Trimble
"
is
caught
and
nearly
buried
in the
thick
ice
. She
did
survive
but was
badly
damaged
. On
February
20
,
1918
the
newspaper
reported
, "
Arrangements
have been
made
to
beach
the
Trimble
on the
levee
at the
foot
of
East
Street
,
where
repairs
will be
made
to the
boat
.
It
will
take
six
weeks
or
two
months
to
complete
repairs
in the
opinion
of the
owners
.
One
side
of the
hull
will have to be
practically
rebuilt
and
damage
to the
wheelhouse
and
decks
of the
boat
will have to be
repaired
before
the
Trimble
is
in
commission
again.
