Description
  • Scope and content: Original Caption: Thirteen miles from the Halifax explosion -- how it appeared at that distance. This remarkable photograph was taken fifteen seconds after the Halifax, Canada explosion at a distance of thirteen miles. The photograph was taken from a vessel bound for a European port, and as the vessel did not stop anywhere the photo went across and came back. This catastrophe, that cost thousands of lives was said to be attributed to enemy activities.
