| Spray (steamer) | The last-named steamer was built in the summer of 1862 at Des Chutes by H. W. Corbett, Capt. A. P. Ankeny, Dr. D. S. Baker, William Gates, and Capt. F. W. Baughman, the latter leaving the Oregon Steam Navigation Company to take command. She was a very profitable boat and paid for herself three times over during the first five months that she was in commission; but in March, 1863, the Oregon Steam Navigation Company gathered her in, as they did everything which interfered with their business on the river. After the change of ownership she was commanded by Capt. Charles Felton until 1864, when Capt. J. H. D. Gray took charge and ran her until 1867, being succeeded by Capt. Thomas Stump. The Spray was a short-lived boat, and, when she wore out, her engines were taken to Portland and placed in the steamer 0rient, while the boiler was used for a time in the Josie McNear. The dimensions of the steamer were: length, 116 feet; beam, 22 feet 9 inches; depth of hold, 5 feet; engines, 14x48 inches. E. W. Wright, The Or |
