Steamboats at Bellevue Levee
Last Thursday there were four steamboats lying at our levee, all
owned in Bellevue, to-wit: the “Iowa,” the “Andy
Reiling,” the “Gussy Girdon,” and the “Rhomberg.”
The “Iowa” went up the river Friday night, and the
“Gussy Girdon” started down to Keithsburg. The “
Andy Reiling” will steam up the river in a few days.
