Journal of Edwin Mitchell of Belfast, Maine, ships' boy, aboard the ship IVANHOE, built Belfast, Maine, 1865, on the passage from Chincha Islands, Peru, to New York. Final entry: [after giving the decks one final sweep] Tonight we take the cars [railroad] to Boston. So ends my great voyage in the ship IVANHOE.
