Weekly Maquoketa Excelsior, April 9, 1861:
SABULA FERRY BOAT-
The new Steam Ferry Boat at Sabula is a large and good one, so says our correspondent. It is of 90 tons register, and is capable of taking twenty-one teams at a load. It is owned by Messrs. HODSON, HARCOURT and OSWALT and will make four trips a day between Sabula and Savanna. This arrangement makes Sabula one of the best crossings on the river in this section; and we hope the new boat will have all she can do.
