摘要: In 1922, the Howard Ship Yard built a steam sternwheel boat for the Vicksburg Engineer District. The boat, named Tallulah after a small community in Louisiana opposite Vicksburg, Miss., had a steel hull 127 by 23 by 4 feet. The engines were 10's - 5-foot stroke, and it had two boilers. Way's Steam Towboat Directory shows that, in March 1923, the master was Capt. Aubrey D. Haynes II, later with the Mississippi Valley Barge Line. In 1929, Capt. Peter An-trainer was master, with S.R. Oliph-ant as chief engineer. About 1937 or 1938 the boat was sold to Anderson Tully Company of Memphis, and in 1941 it was shown as owned by Pat-ton-Tully Transportation, Memphis. By 1942, it was shown as being owned by Commercial Barge Line of Evansville, Ind., and the name changed to Walter F. Carey. (While both Way's and the Inland River Record indicate the boat was renamed when rebuilt in 1943, the List of Merchant Vessels of the United States shows it as the Carey and still steam sternwheel in 1942, and at least one photo exists showing it that way as the Carey.).
