The image features the majestic steamboat, David Swain, docked at a landing in Chillicothe, Illinois. With its towering smokestacks billowing clouds of smoke into the sky, this vessel is a true marvel of maritime transportation. The David Swain was part of the Lasalle and Peoria packet boat fleet that played a crucial role in connecting communities along the river during this era.
