Harnsburg's Ferry.
Bulletin: For the first time in vonrs
the ferry boat is likely to givo trouble
in malting us way from bank to bank.
Tho east side of the channel filled up
several feet the past winter, the west
sine deepening, tieretolore both sides
have always remained about the same
depth. As the stage of the water
lowors it becomes apparent that the
ferry boat is Boon to drag on the gravel
bottom ntid just how far the boat will
come at the lowest stage of the river
from reaching the east bank is a matter
of speculation.
