1890 engraving, The Late Terrible Storms on the Atlantic - An Ocean Steamer Passing Through a Mass of Wreckage.


Storms during the third week of January 1890. "Two incoming steamers reported having passed through the wreckage of a steamer and the carcasses of dead cattle, and this gave rise to the fear that the National Line steamer Erin, long over-due, and known to be laden with cattle and grain in sacks, had been lost."
