Aqueduct fire rescued (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) said:
    In August 1913, three men were killed and 62 others trapped in a tunnel in Harlem, part of the Catskill Aqueduct, when a fire started in a blacksmith's shop at the head of the shaft. It was especially dangerous because 900 pounds of dynamite were stored in the tunnel. There was no light, no fresh air, and a lot of smoke, but eventually the trapped men were rescued.
  • Anne (LOC P&P) said:
    pennylrichards: Thanks for the additional information. We'll include the event and date next time we update the record.
