“Steam Boats on the Ohio River and its Tributaries, 1812-1836,” from Statistics of the West, by James Hall, is the reproduction of another publication that will be found useful to librarians and others interested in the early navigation of the Ohio. This portion of the work concludes on page 382 with a poetic tribute to the Ohio River by Mrs. Bessie H. Woolford, of Madison, Indiana, printed fifty years ago.” 527
