Object Description
Title | CITY OF MUSKOGEE, 1908. |
Way Number | 1107 |
Creator | Howard, James E., 1875-1956 (photographer) |
Description | CITY OF MUSKOGEE backing out from Howard Shipyard in Jeffersonville, Indiana on a trial run up the Ohio River. CITY OF MUSKOGEE, a stern-wheel packet with wood hull (127.6 ft. x 28.5 ft. x 4.7 ft.), was built at Howard in 1908. Owned by Merchants of Muskogee, Oklahoma, CITY OF MUSKOGEE operated on the Arkansas River initially. After being idle for several years due to low water and lack of freight, she was moved to the White and Black Rivers. She was renamed LORAINE K. (Way #3558) in 1922, and then OUACHITA (Way #4353) in 1924. OUACHITA burned on her first trip on September 12, 1924. |
