This was identified by some Cincinnati outfit as the SHIRLEY. No such packet exists in the Directory.4674.jpg

Jon,

it is a White Collar Line boat...that can't be disputed. Can't say as I have heard of her or seen her anywhere else.

Based on that tip, a glance through the index reveals that this is #5093 SHERLEY (not SHiRLEY) built 1891 at Harmar, successor to the LOUIS A. SHERLEY, from which much of her equipment came. Apparently a duplicate of the CONGO. Anyone have other pictures of this handsome vessel?

She could be City of Vevay or Carrollton.
