Governor Cornwallis (ferry) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Governor Cornwallis (ferry)
''Governor Cornwallis'' was a ferry that operated on the Halifax-Dartmouth Ferry Service between the Nova Scotia cities of Halifax and Dartmouth between 1942 and 1944 before sinking in a spectacular fire. ==History== Named after Edward Cornwallis, the founder of Halifax, the ferry was built because of the heavy wartime traffic on the Halifax to Dartmouth ferries which had grown to 6 million passengers and 500,000 vehicles per year. The original tender went out in 1938 and 6 bids were received. The tender was ultimately won by a Dartmouth shipbuilder Hugh D. Weagle for $93,551. ''Governor Cornwallis'' was launched at 8:30am on November 20, 1941 and operational to the public December 6, 1942.
