Abstract:

The State of North Carolina now operates a ferry service between Atlantic and Ocracoke, reminding residents of a time almost sixty years ago when the eastern part of the state was better served by water transportation. Although the boat line has declined with the regular trade, several Washington men assure residents better boat service will resume in the near future. The new ferry reminds residents of bygone days when first-class steamboats of the Dominion line made the voyage to Ocracoke.
