The Marietta Daily Times, March 25, 1918
Residents of Marietta will probably get their last look at the old boat house in the Ohio River during the next few days. A deal is now on between Messrs. Morton Harper and Henry Best for the sale of the craft to some Parkersburg parties. It is expected to be put through on Tuesday.
The regular wharf boat arrived from the docks at Point Pleasant on Sunday morning. All merchandise was transferred from the boat house and the Marietta wharf had its first business transacted when the steamer Reuben Dunbar docked on Sunday morning.
The boat house will be converted into a club house by the Parkersburg parties. It was recently purchased by Messrs. Best and Harper for use while the wharf boat was being repaired.
