Subsequent Civilian Maritime Career
In merchant service, the former Bat operated between ports on the U.S. East Coast—especially New York City and Boston, Massachusetts—and New Orleans, Louisiana. In 1871, she was sold to a Canadian owner, renamed Miramichi and subsequently operated between ports on the St. Lawrence River and in the Gulf of Newfoundland. In 1902, the ship was acquired by the Richelieu and Ontario Steam Navigation Co.; and, soon thereafter, she was scrapped.

Famous quotes containing the words subsequent and/or career:
“And he smiled a kind of sickly smile, and curled up on the floor,
And the subsequent proceedings interested him no more.”
—Francis Bret Harte (1836–1902)
““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
