 Ferries in Kansas, Part IX -- Arkansas River by George A. Root, February 1936
The Arkansas river rises in central Colorado, in a pocket of peaks in Lake county, near present Leadville, at an altitude of 10,000 feet.
With the settlement of that portion of Kansas lying along the river between Dodge City and the west line of the state, the pioneers in irrigation began construction of canals and ditches, and the waters of the Arkansas were diverted for irrigation purposes.
Down the river there was always a good market for surplus grain, flour, produce, etc. During the late 1870’s it was not always an easy matter to sell surplus crops; the railroad was too far away, and the river afforded the most convenient route to a market, so ferry-boats were utilized for conveying such crops.

  Murdock, failing to take account of this, poled straight into the cross current, the canoe shot from under him, he disappeared in the white foam, and in an instant his canoe, running wild, was shooting down the rapids in danger of destruction.

One thing I've figured out is about mapping my own childhood- growing up on Pleasant Lake- onto the Miami River- or why I am, of all the things one could choose to think about on the river, most attracted to the Haitian boats, docks and warehouses and the sanctions against the people.
For me the Miami River is the embodiment of two radically different things smashed up against each other-Hegal and Genet--the bright condos of reason, order, air-conditioning, River Walks and cheerful, jazz filled tourist restaurants the developers are pushing the Haitians off the river in order to construct.
