RIVER TRAFFIC
The British ship Success was built at Moulmain, India in 1790. After 1802 she carried convicts from England to Australia. Capt. D. H. Smith bought her in 1914 and brought her to the US as a tourist attraction. She was at Wheeling in 1918. She burned and sank at Port Clinton, Ohio in 1946.
