Title: A relic of the Northwest Rebellion, Prince Albert, Sask.:
Institution: University Library, University of Saskatchewan
Description: Image of the "Marquis," a steam powered vessel that was significant for it's role in the Northwest Rebellion. "Marquis, 1882-? Built in Winnipeg, 1882, by Mr. Gregory for the WWTC. Cost over $50,000. 201 ft. by 33.5 ft. with depth of 5.3 ft. Gross tonnage of 453.76. Registered tonnage of 474.87. Sternwheeler. Square-stern. Two horizontal high-pressure engines built in 1882 at Iowa Iron Works of Dubuque, Iowa. Cylinders’ diameter of 19 in. Six-foot stroke. Three boilers generating 125 lbs. steam per square inch. Horsepower of 83.74. Steered by four balanced rudders hung from the stern in front of the paddle wheel. Operated on the Saskatchewan River. Towed across Lake Winnipeg by the Princess and arrived at Grand Rapids on 25 July 1882, along with the aging Manitoba. Using the “nigger” apparatus the mammoth boat managed to ascend the Grand Rapids successfully. At the upper end of the Rapids her machinery was installed and she was ready for use on the Saskatchewan River on 25 September 1882. Operated between Grand Rapids and Prince Albert but often hampered by low water or the cut-off of the Saskatchewan River. Used as General Middleton’s flagship and troop transport during Riel Rebellion. In 1887 low water prevented the Marquis from navigating above Cole’s Falls. From 1888-90 was beached at Cumberland House. Hauled to Prince Albert in 1890 by WWTC to use in 1891 season but was beached there and abandoned. Demise: The Marquis deteriorated more and more as she lay unused at Prince Albert. The saloon was used as a dance hall for a number of years. A local resident then used the wood to construct his house. Parts of the hull were still visible in 1923 on the river bank but these were finally destroyed by a number of fires." “Marquis,” Steamboats on the Red, Accessed May 15, 2013, http://steamboatsonthered.com/notable-vessels/marquis/.
