Excursion to Chamberlain a tedious river trip
Mitchell cornets band organized a rail and steamboat excursion to Chamberlain and Ft. Thompson. The Milwaukee steamer proved unsuitable for passengers, rough river current and headwinds lengthened the journey, a sand-bar grounded the boat, but the return voyage improved. A party at Chamberlain enjoyed a brief layover before the train departed. Frank Smith joined at lunch aboard.
