" U.S. Revenue Cutter 'Rush' at Valdez, Alaska." Cataloguer's note: Named in honor of Richard Rush (1780 - 1859) who was a statesman and a diplomat, during the administrations of Adams and John Quincy Adams. The Revenue Cutter Richard Rush was built by Atlantic Iron Works at East Boston, Massachusetts and launched on March 14, 1874. The Rush was built for service on the west coast. Her services included; assisting vessels in distress, searching for survivors of wrecked ships, enforcing fisheries laws and transported dignitaries as well as U.S. government records and properties. As such, the Rush made numerous voyages to and from Alaska between 1877 and 1912.

In February 1906 the U.S. Revenue Cutter sailed the Alaskan waters to convey the Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue, with the Deputy U. S. Marshals, to Valdez, Alaska. Again from May 1909 to February 1910, she sailed along the Alaskan coastline touring Juneau, Kodiak, Valdez and Unalaska.

On September 30, 1912 she was decommissioned at Port Townsend and a year later on January 22 1913 she was sold to the Alaska Junk Company for $8.500.00.
