THE STEAM YACHT "A. 

 Editor Forent. nnd Stream:

 and an

 masters from Long [slaial 

 . he is of the yacht. Your 

 all over the commodious vessel, and sends 

 the subjoined report. 



Thi, yacht was built by Mr. 1 P, Smith, an old ship builder, whose 

 forefrtln r-g clear back to his great-grandfather, held the same oc- 

 cupation before bun >ir. Smith, however, retired from sliipl.-miilitig; 

 auuit twenty years ago, and came West to Chicago. He embarked in 

 tho wholesale ico business, and only plans and has built yachts tor 

 his friends, li is lus recreation and a source of delight to plan a fine 

 yacht. 



Hi side the Booth he has modeled and built the yachts Dauntless, 

 now at 7-ake Geneva, and which he owns, aud the yacht Gauntlett, 

 for Mr. Sturgis. president of the Northwestern Natior ' . :- i i 

 city. Both vachts art* excellent models and are speedy. He planed 

 the Booth at odd hours, and would frequently arise out of bed at 

 nighttime to draw lines and work at the estimates. The vessel was 

 builtfor Mr. A. Booth, the famous oyster pucker of Chicago and 

 Baltimore. It a ill be used for pleasure, and next season the work 

 cut oui for her embraces a trip from this port to your city via the 

 Erie Canal. Mr. Booth spared no pains to make a perfect vessel. 

 W hat adds to the interest in the yacht now is the fact that, she put to 

 sea from Sheboygan Harbor to the great storm of Thursday, Novem-
