Description

TITLE: The "Niagara" on the scene of her battle 1813 SUMMARY: Oliver Perry's flagship the "Niagara" and two other ships in Put-in-Bay Harbor, Lake Erie on 20-25 July 1913.[1]

Perry's Flagship Niagara Arrives at Put-In-Bay. Hoarse Whistles of the Steam Craft Drown Out the Bands and tho Shouts of Fifteen Thousand People. Half Hundred Yachts In the Harbor Salute the Old Relic—Sailboats to Race This Week. Put-In-Bay, O., July 21—After IOO years Commodore Perry’s flagship, the Niagara, returned to the scene of its victory over the British fleet in the battle of Lake Erie, Sept. IO. 1913. Towed by the Wolverine, the naval militia ship of Pennsylvania, and accompanied by Ohio’s naval militia ships, the Essex and the Dorothea, the Niagara reached Gibraltar island, the point from which Perry’s fleet first sighted the British fleet of two brigs, two ships, two schooners and one sloop. Fifteen thousand people visited Put- In-Bay to see the Niagara brought into the port to which she returned after the battle of IOO years ago. The hoarse whistle of the steam craft in the harbor drowned out the “Star Spangled Banner,” played by the Wolverine's marine band. Half a hundred yachts, anchored in the harbor in readiness for the regatta of the Interlake Yachting association, saluted the old relic.[2]
Date CREATED/PUBLISHED: c1913 July 23.
