The Clinton Age, Clinton, Iowa, June 8, 1883

W. J. Young and the crew of the steamer of D. Boardman, went to Galena, Ill., Monday, to attend the funeral of Capt. Rellis, who died at his home in that place, on Saturday last. Capt. Rellis was one of the best steamboat men on the river and has been in the employ of W. J. Young and Co. for four years. His many comrades and friends deeply sympathize with the bereaved wife.
