Smith of Oakland, Cal.
 The Grady never made any money for her owners. She was built in Portland and ran on the Columbia River for a time. Then she was laid up and finally some of the fruit dealers in Oakland tried to buy her for the Sacramento River trade Everything but the paying of the purchase money was carried out and the vessel was held at the last minute. Fi- nalIy everything was strengthened out and the Grady came to San Francisco. She made several trips up the Sacra- mento in opposition to the Southern Pa ciflc, but her debts followed her from Portland, and the new ones incurred here i,Ra1ad sqon dSwamped snI1pe n the venture She was shal, sold at public auction and has ever since been lying up in Oakland Creek.
