KN0371 KENORA - MOTOR BOAT AT KENORA [SWEETHEART]

06 Oct 2016 2 243
POSTCARD Date: Not evident. Not Posted. Publisher / Photographer: Unidentified Notation: I am pleased to say that I learned more about the Sweetheart from Mr. Jim Fields; "The SWEETHEART was owned by the Pulford family that had the Pulford island near the back channel. My grandfather R J Speers bought the island in 1945. The boat was scrapped. The Sweetheart was used to transport the Duke of Conought in 1913 when he gave the Royal designation to the Royal Lake of the Woods Yacht Club. I think Mr Pulford was Commodore of the club that year." In the book "Lake of the Woods through the Lens of Carl G. Linde" I saw a picture of a July 1914 Regatta in Kenora that featured the Sweetheart as one of "300 elaborately decorated boats... to mark... the visit of the Duke and Duchess of Connaught."

MN0954 LOCKPORT - ST. ANDREWS - … WILLIAMS STEAMER…

13 Apr 2015 1 210
Unposted. Publisher unidentified. A steamboat seemingly picking up passengers on its northbound journey through the locks at St. Andrews on the Red River. Name is difficult to decipher. Appears to be a two-word name. Last word is "WILLIAMS" the first word could be something ending in "...LLS". I've asked the Maritime museum in Selkirk for an opinion.
