Here are the references to Captain Boughman. The spelling is difficult to pin down due to the handwriting. It could be Broughman or Boughman.

Weather still fair. Have a pretty good trip to day. I could not get off at home to night as we are still without a Captain. We look for our new Captain Peter BOUGHMAN tomorrow.
