Bohlen Huse Ice and Coal Co. April 1913 following Miss. River flood

James Lee Jr purchased the Bohlen Huse Ice and Coal business sometime in the mid 1880’s and installed one of his sons as the President.   Following the flood of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers April 1913 the facilities were flooded resulting in the necessary shut down and over haul of the equipment.   These pictures were taken during this time.   I have additional pictures which will be posted in the near future.
