dean of Missouri river pilots, who has
been spending the winter in Mem,

are locked in the ice. Capt. Marsh,
before the war, was engaged in the
business around Memphis, but after
all the steamboats, on the Mississippi
river had either been burned or sunk
he led the great tide of immigration
westward along the Missouri river tC
it's very headwaters. The Missouri
river served in those days as n OF
the main thoroughfares westward
The Indians, however, resented the
invasion of their hunting grounds,
and every inch OF the way was won
after a contest. Grant Marsh, how
ever, survived all the hardships and
dangers of those pioneer days and
now, at the age of so years, is as
hearty as a boy, and comes with a
clear memory Of the days when he
was really a boy to tell of the early

The Editor, in 1854, he says, was
the first regular packet between Men,
phis and st. Louis. Steamboats, in
those days were owned and operated
by their captains and were entirely
independent of each other.
The first steamboat organization,
he says, was the Memphis & st. Louis
Packet company, which operated four
splendid sideWheel steamers. The
Philadelphia was commanded by
Capt. Marshall, the John Dickey was
under the direction Of Capt. Dan
Able, the. Platte Valley was managed
by Capt. William Postal, and the
James II. Lucas was under the com:
mand of Capt. Silvers' ,
While this line was still in opera
ton many other packet companies
sprang up, seeing the advantages
which came from an organization
and Memphis was connected with
Cincinnati, Nashville, V%icksburg and
New Orleans, besides having many
local packets in the short trade tc

the st. Francis rivers. All steam
