(Route 5001) Dove, boxed red handstamp on folded bill of lading dated April 13th 1848 from New Orleans accompanying 29 bags of sugar to Louisville Ky., docketed "B/L" at top right, Very Fine, ex-Roger Oswald. Milgram No. 358 Estimate $600 - 800.
The "Dove" was running on the course of Route 5001 that was contracted by the trip. It is not known if this steamboat was running as a contract boat in April 1848 when this bill of lading was carried. The "Dove" of 237 tons was built at New Albany Ind. in 1848 and enrolled at Louisville that year and this must represent an early trip for this vessel.
