PS Norah Creina was a paddle steamship operated by the Drogheda Steam Packet Company from 1878 to 1902 and the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway from 1902 to 1912.
The steam tug Black Eagle went out to meet her with some Boyne Commissioners on board.
The Norah Creina grounded twice in the river, the tide only half in, and on the second occasion, the Black Eagle was required to tow her free.
As she arrived at the quay, the steamers Tredagh and Lord Athlumney fired salutes of welcome from their cannons.
Unlike the Tredagh and Kathleen Mavourneen, which were scrapped following the arrival of the new screw steamers Colleen Bawn and Mellifont in 1903, the Norah Creina and Iverna remained in service until they were sold for scrap in 1912.
