"The ferry wharf, at Floridatown, which the recent
low tides have demonstrated to be inadequate is now
being extended by the owner, Mr. R. E. Lewis.
By the end of the present month the big steam ferry
boat which is to ply between Floridatown and Ferry
Pass, affording a means of communication between
Escambia and Santa Rosa counties almost as effective
as a bridge, is expected to be completed and in
operation. The inauguration of this ferry service will
remove one of the obstacles in the way of the proposed
branch of the Dixie Highway from Pensacola to
Jacksonville."
