In September or October when the water is low go to John Walters house by the Kinsmen field house and walk down the river. It will be along there a few yards out.
What had happened was the water dropped and the riverboat got stuck. It couldn't be freed. Some of it was dismantled. (The oak floor was put in one of the dance halls on jasper ave.) The rest of the boat got destroyed by flood and ice. Just the hull remained stuck in the silt.
