She was later refloated and scrapped in the same year; addressed to Mr. Gorden Dresser; "The Steamer Tashmoo is the pride of the White Star Line. She was constructed especially for use as a river excursion boat and carries 4,000 passengers on her broad decks.

At Tashmoo Park, where the steamer touches, a large picnic ground and dancing pavilion are maintained."
