Description
English:

Written on verso: Naptuna launch "Virginia" owned by Semple and Edgar Ames of St. Louis and Notchcliff. She was usually moored at "Illinois" yacht club at Alton. At least six people could sleep aboard. My aunt Mrs. L.V. Ames and I took many delightful cruises up and down the river when I was 13 and 14 and I learned to follow the view chart. Lou Hayward, Semple Ames, and I think probably one of the Mizners. PH Coll 1120.90
