Excerpt from To Cuba and Back: A Vacation Voyage
Saturday, the twelfth day of February, 1859, is a dull, dark day in New York, with visitaf tions of snow-squalls, as the United States Mail Steamer Cahawba swings at her pier, at the foot of Robinson-street - a pier crowded with drays and drivers, and a street of mud, snow and ice, and poor habitations. The steamer is to sail at one p.m.; and, by half-past twelve, her decks are full, and the mud and snow of the pier are well trodden by men and horses.
