Description:
Harry Alexander Ogden's famous drawing of the S.S. Cambria. The article begins: "In the landlocked waters of Southwest Harbor lies the now muchly talked of Cambria. A more adroit selection for a quiet berth could scarcely have been made; and when we came to take a glance at the trim and taut-looking vessel, we felt inclined to wonder, as with the fly in amber, "how the deuce she got there?” Southwest Harbor is about twenty-three miles from Ellsworth, Maine. To reach it, recalls those tortuous times when our forefathers ventured forth at rare intervals, their wills made, their flasks full, and their powder dry. The journey from New York to Boston, and from thence to Bangor, savors of the nineteenth century, but from Bangor to Ellsworth, and from Ellsworth to Southwest Harbor, speaks loudly of the eighteenth."

“The “Yarmouth,” said to be the finest and fastest sea-going steamer owned in the Dominion of Canada, is 1,432 tons gross; was built at the Clyde by A. MacMillan & Son, in the early part of 1887, for £24,000 sterling; is of 2,200 horse-power, lighted by electricity, steered by steam-power; has the other modern improvements, and berths for 350 passengers.

The “Yarmouth” is in charge of Capt. Harvey Doane, whose twenty years’ experience in steamers running to Yarmouth entitles him to the utmost confidence; and he is ably seconded by Capt. Samuel F. Stanwood, now acting pilot.” – “Yarmouth, Nova Scotia: A Sequel to Campbell’s History” by George S. Brown, Rand Avery Company, Printers, Boston, p. 505 – 1888. Photographer Henry L.
