M. Michael & Brother, Saddlery and Buggy Wholesaler and the Steamer Bultorff


M. Michael & Brother shipped saddlery of some kind from Paducah to Pinkneyville, Kentucky aboard the Steamer Bultorff.  I am mystified by the cancel of

N. P. C. P. CO.
AUG 22
1898.

As advert from the Paducah newspaper shown below has the Steamer Buttorft (variation on spelling a mistake or different steamer?) belonging to the Ryman Line, which does not explain the initials on the cancel.  If you have an idea of what the initials on the cancel might stand for, please write 1898revenues@gmail.com.
