ALSO, A GREAT VARIETY OF Useful autt *nUccstfno Jwatte? For the convenient and ready reference of MEN IN BUSINESS, AND CITIZENS GENERALLY. '• Who steals my purse, steals trash"— But he who borrows my DIRECTORY, filches me Most villanously. LOICGWORTH. ALBANY: PRINTED BV J. B. VAN STEESBERGH. 1831, 'I. PREFACE. THIS edition bf the ALBANY DIRECTORY, from ftie cir­ cumstances of the increased population of the city, and the additional tables with various other interesting matter which it contains, has very considerably enlarged its di­ mensions But, with a view to satisfy the public, as far forth as possible, the compiler has devoted the most un- weariet' attention to the arrangement, usefulness and ac­ curacy of its contents. And he trusts that his labor and perseverance has been so far successful as to make it as accurate and useful as any that has preceded it. It is not, however, to be doubted, but that seme errors have crept into the work. It is difficult, if not impossible, to prevent them ; and should a few occur, they neither particularly injure the usefulness or impair the convenience of it. Those who patronise the undertaking, will forbear to cen­ sure a detect which they know is unavoidable—Those W!JO do not, will undoubtedly find fault, and urge its de­ fects as an excuse for not patronising it. To the first the compiler owes and hereby tenders his thanks—to the lat- •er he owes and hereby tenders his indifference. Public and corporate bodies, men in official stations, and men in active business, are aware of the great clif. culty ind expense incurred, in the compilation, printiug and distributing a Directory for so numerous a city as Albany, ihc.y also appreciate its value and convenience. It i9 to the i , and to the enlightened and liberal citizens general­ ly, that the compiler and publisher must appeal for sup­ port in the undertaking, and for remuneration for his se •:ere labor and heavy expenses.

  • River Highway for Trade, the Savannah : Canoes, Indian Tradeboats
    RIVER HIGHWAY FOR TRADE THE SAVANNAH BY RUBY A. RAHN CANOES. INDIAN TRADEBOATS, FLATBOATS, STEAMERS, PACKETS. AND BARGES UG 23 S29 PUBLISHED BY 1968 U. S. ARMY ENGINEER DISTRICT, SAVANNAH CORPS OF ENGINEERS SAVANNAH, GEORGIA JUNE 1968 FOREWORD River Highway for Trade by Ruby A. Rahn is the result of nearly a quarter of a century of research into contemporary newspaper files, old letters, and documents as well as personal memories. Miss Rahn, a long-time school teacher in the school sys­ tem of Savannah, was born in Effingham County in 1883. She grew up close to the River, during those years when the life and excitement of the River was still a part of local living. Miss Rahn was assisted in the compilation of the monograph by her niece, Naomi Gnann LeBey. The information of the mono­ graph offers a vivid and valuable record of river activities from the time of Indian habitation through the 19th century. Sometimes supplementary items of the period are included which seem proper in this miscellany of interesting infor­ mation. M. L. Granger Editor I NTRODUCTI ON I wish to acknowledge with gratitude the help and en­ couragement received from Mrs. Lilla Hawes, Miss Bessie Lewis, and Mr. Edward Mueller. They were, indeed, friends in my need. The information on the poleboats was all taken from the Marine News reports of the daily newspapers of the time. The totals of cotton bales for these boats can only be ap­ proximate, as the poleboats were hauling cotton for a few years before the papers started to publish the Marine News.

THE "LIVERPOOL HURRICANE" of 1839 by P.J.H.Tebay To become known later as the "Great Storm" with winds reaching hurricane strength around the whole coastline of the British Isles, the reference "Liverpool" would appear to have American origins, perhaps because of the foundering of three New York packets off the port. This was as many as had been lost in the twenty years since the start of this service, and on one ship, the Pennsylvania, the loss of life was to become the heaviest on the New York ocean run between 1824 and 1847.

(from the original painting by Charles Dixon, R.I.) ToList KING'S CUTTERS AND SMUGGLERS 1700-1855 BY E. KEBLE CHATTERTON AUTHOR OF "SAILING SHIPS AND THEIR STORY," "THE ROMANCE OF THE SHIP" "THE STORY OF THE BRITISH NAVY," "FORE AND AFT," ETC. WITH 33 ILLUSTRATIONS AND FRONTISPIECE IN COLOURS LONDON GEORGE ALLEN & COMPANY, LTD. 44 & 45 RATHBONE PLACE 1912 [All rights reserved] Printed by BALLANTYNE, HANSON & CO. At the Ballantyne Press, Edinburgh PREFACE I have in the following pages endeavoured to resist the temptation to weave a web of pleasant but unreliable fiction round actual occurrences. That which is here set forth has been derived from facts, and in almost every case from manuscript records. It aims at telling the story of an eventful and exciting period according to historical and not imaginative occurrence. There are extant many novels and short stories which have for their heroes the old-time smugglers. But the present volume represents an effort to look at these exploits as they were and not as a novelist likes to think they might have occurred.
