NP, VC 12/9/1861

From the Vicksburg Citizen
 
December 9, 1861
  
The Desoto Ferry
   It is suggested by our Louisiana friends that they would be greatly accommodated if the Ferry Boat would delay to Twenty minutes after Two o'clock before crossing over. Persona are hurried away from the City in order to cross on the Ferry at 2:00 o'clock and then have to wait at the Depot until half past Two before the {Vicksburg, Shreveport & Texas RR} Train leaves. Ten minutes in town is often of more importance than an hour spent at the Depot.
