234. City of Jeffersonville Ferry stuck in ice
| Description: |
The image shows two photographs, on of the Ohio River in the 1970s, the second and larger picture of the same spot in January 1893. The larger picture shows several people looking at an Ohio River frozen over, folks walking on the river, and the Ferry boat, The City of Jeffersonville, stuck in the frozen river just beyond the bridge supports, but too far out to be docked at its wharf. |
