Barge Collision Sends Barrow Towboat Barge to Port
A barge loaded with 3000 staves and 100 barrels of naval stores was being towed by the river steamer Liberty from Breiner's Landing on the Bigbee river when it struck a deadhead at Adams street and partially sank near the city wharf. Captain Quarles directed quick crew action to prevent further sinking as the vessel leaked water through a large bow hole. The Liberty also carried 13 bales of cotton. Captain Quarles noted 13 as an unlucky number for the trip.
