Lakeshore Towing scheduled to tow tug PRAIRIELAND from Dunkirk, NY to Erie

Wednesday morning Lakeshore Towing's tug DON HENRY is scheduled to depart Erie bound for Dunkirk, New York to take in tow the Geo. Gradel Company's tug PRAIRIELAND and bring it back to Erie. The PRAIRIELAND, which is working on maintenance dredging for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in Dunkirk harbor, has apparently suffered bottom damage and will be towed to Erie Shipbuilding, where the 50-foot long, 40-ton tug will be lifted out and repaired.
