Here we look at, • The U.B. Weldon was formerly named Shelter Bay and Jay C. Morse Weldon has done for scrap. Pilothouse serves as Goderich's marine museum By SKIP GILLHAM The grain storage barge D.B. Weldon has become the third member of the Goderich Elevator Company fleet to go for scrap this year. She was towed into Thunder Bay on June 11. Like her storage mates, R.G. Sanderson and Lionel Parsons, this freighter began her career as part of an American lakes fleet. She was built in Cleveland in 1907 for Pickands, Mather's Interlake Steam- ship Company. This fleet has long been a vital cog in Great Lakes shipping and in 1983 is celebrating its 100th anniver- sary. At christening ceremonies our featured vessel was named Jay C. Morse. Her en- try, into service was heralded because at 552 feet in length by 58 feet at the beam (168.25 x 17.68 metres) , this was the largest vessel in the fleet. Today, Interlake operate three vessels of at least 1,000 feet (304.80 metres) in length. Things certainly have changed. The Jay C. Morse carried coal, ore, stone and grain for Interlake for over half a cen- tury. She hauled in the neighbourhood of 30 - 40 cargos a season and travell- ed between U.S. ports from Lake Superior to Lake Erie. The Morse was laid up at South Chicago from 1960 to early 1965. She was then sold to Quebec and Ontario Transportation and joined the Canadian inland fleet as Shelter Bay. Shelter Bay now ran as tar east as the Gulf of a Lawrence hauling grain ,to Baie Comeau and Port Car- tier and returning with ore or pulpwood. Occasional loads of newsprint, coal and salt were also handled. Shelter Bay managed a few visits to Goderich during these years bringing in cargos of grain. Her capaci- ty in this trade was 380,000 bushels or 11,500 tons when hauling ore, coal or salt. Shelter Bay had a routine and uneventful career. She Protect your feet The Canada Safety Coun- cil's theme for the 1983 Farm Safejy Week is 'Weed Out Hazards - Wear Protective Equipment'. It is recommended that foot protection be worn at all times. Common causes of in- jury on the farm include dropping heavy items, get- ting feet under rotary mowers or in augers, being run over by machinery or stepped on by animals, and stepping on sharp objects. Proper protection would prevent or lessen the severi- ty of most foot injuries. Safe- ty boots should be the regular footwear on the farm. Safety boots should have the certification label of the Canadian Standards Association. Consult your footwear dealer for the pro- per class of protection for your operation. did run aground in the Brockville Narrows on May 2, 1967, and it took two days for her to be released. A trip to Port Weller Drydocks was required to make her ship- shape again. Her last full season was 1978 and she made two stops in Goderich that year. Her final visit ended her active career and after unloading she was sold to the Goderich Elevator Company. They renamed her D.B. Weldon. Although the vessel has gone, a part remains behind. On May 27, 1981 her pilothouse was removed and placed on a cement pad to serve as a marine museum here in Goderich. This struc- ture had been added to the vessel during the winter of 1953-54 and replaced an earlier and smaller house. The rest of the ship is now at Thunder Bay where the men of Western Metals will break up the hull for scrap. Joe Leuthard Real Estate Ltd.
