CALLWAY, PRESQUE ISLE Arrive for Winter

PRESQUE ISLE, after reporting that they were dragging their anchors and had touched bottom in the stormy waters of Lake Erie on Thursday night, arrived in Erie at 0730 Friday morning to dock at the Mountfort Terminal. The bow of the barge was covered in ice as the vessel docked, due to the spray from Lake Erie.

CASON J. CALLAWAY arrived at 0600 Friday morning and anchored off the Old Ore Dock to await winds. The vessel got underway at about 1800 this evening and by 1845 was secured for the winter at the dock.
