Mobile steamboat passenger notices - Register and Journal, 1845-05-13
Complete first three passenger notices in issue image 3, column 3: New World, Alexander Scott and Admiral. The remaining shipping advertisements and all of issue image 1 are context only, not transcribed.
Three advertisements describe scheduled steamboat journeys to Louisville/Cincinnati, St. Louis, and Montgomery/Wetumpka. These are advertised services, not evidence that the sailings actually occurred. Both supplied newspaper pages are preserved, in issue order. Surrounding pages contain slavery-related advertisements and nineteenth-century medical claims, preserved as historical evidence without endorsement.
