The father of Tomahawk-Wm Bradley-entertained on a lavish scale. He owned a unique boat rain that steamed the Somo River. It consisted of the steamer, "Nynack," which was used as a tug boat to haul six barges, all coupled together like a railroad train. The cabins on the barges were built like railroad cars. There were three sleeping cars, a kitchen, a dining car and an observation car. After Bradley's death, the boats were broken up, but two of them were purchased and placed on an island near the Marinette Bridge over the Somo River and converted into summer cottages. They were still occupied in the 1930s. Source: 1886-1986 Centennial Edition Tomahawk Leader Dawn [email protected]
