We have received no further listings and, accordingly, our coverage of the various winter fleets is concluded for this year. To those additional members who corresponded concerning lay-ups, we extend our appreciation to Tim Blackwell, Jim Gerger, Robert Ireland, James Michael, Ed Middleton, Gene Onchulenko, and Ed Schwartz. To those members who live near ports for which a list did not appear, we are sorry that we did not hear from you. To take the place of additional current lay-up listings, we present the following item which was culled by Ron Beaupre from the Owen Sound daily newspaper for December 6, 1888: "Of steam vessels, we have the ATHABASCA, ALBERTA and CAMPANA of the C.P.R. line, the CARMONA and CAMBRIA of the Canada Lake Superior Transit Company, the WILLIAM M. ALDERSON of the Georgian Bay Transit Company, Cook and Company supply steamer METEOR, Government steamers BAYFIELD and CRUISER, the steam barge KINCARDINE, tugs ATKENS, SISKIWIT, NELLIE REID, ALPHA and HEATHERBELLE, and the steam yacht MOCKING BIRD. It is a remarkable fact that there is not a sailing vessel in the harbour, nor is it likely that there will be any this winter."
