From the Connecticut Colony Records

In 1724 William Pratt of Saybrook was authorized to run a ferry. "And that William Brockway of Lyme, who lives on the east side of the river over against the said Pratt, have liberty to keep or ply with a boat the same ferry, and transport persons and horses at the same rates.

In 1744 the fare at the ferry was set "for man, horse and load, fourteen pence during the three winter months, and half so much for a man, and during the residue of the year ten pence for man, horse and load, and five pence for a man, all old currency."
