I'm just processing the data from Yantic 1891. I'll start on this one when I've finished with Yantic and a couple of other small chores...

Moored to S.S. Rosebank U.S. Army Pier, Excursion Inlet
February 5

While I was searching for a location of the Army Pier on Excursion Inlet, I came across this short and well-written article about the $18-60,000,000 white elephant. I gather, from reading the article, that the pier was, to all intents and purposes, located very close to the cannery.
