The barge was paid for by Riggle who used his inheritance to start the project. Riggle worked on the project for a time until one of his children nearly fell in to the river.〔Heralds of a Brighter Day http://archive.org/stream/heraldsofabright012292mbp/heraldsofabright012292mbp_djvu.txt〕 There was no financial collection made during the services held during this ministry; volunteers paid for the expenses. The mission was planned to last for 5 years with stops planned for various lengths.〔Steubenville Herald May 11, 1894 http://msdev.newspaperarchive.com/us/ohio/steubenville/steubenville-herald/1894/05-11/page-2〕
