She needs to be set free to paddle up our waters again.She was a boon to the town of Hannibal Mo, and we waited for her every year. People would flock to see her in their pleasure boats staring miles downriver from Hannibal.We would cruise alongside her and exchange greetings with the passengers who all appeared to be having the time of their lives. This ship is pure Americana.Mark Twain is probably rolling in his grave over her plight.
