    www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3893647 Your link doesn't work because it truncated off at the parenthesis. That is why I use Wikidata Q-numbers.

    When will the "News in the 1910s" project be on a regular release schedule? We used to get 50 new releases every Friday. Half of the participants have dropped out from participating.

    I wonder why there's an American flag up there near the bow.

    Interesting to see the sailing vessels moored beyond. Colliers perhaps?

Funeral of officers of NITAKA (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • swanq said:
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_cruiser_Niitaka "Niitaka (新高) was the lead ship of the Niitaka-class protected cruisers of the Imperial Japanese Navy. She was the sister ship of the Tsushima." "On 26 August 1922, Niitaka anchored near the mouth of a river in what is now part of the Ust-Bolsheretsky District on the southern coast of the Kamchatka Peninsula, while a party of 15 led by Lieutenant Shigetada Gunji went ashore. Sudden typhoon-force winds drove the vessel onto rocks, where it overturned, killing all 284 people aboard at 51°30′N 156°29′ECoordinates: 51°30′N 156°29′E. The only survivors were the members of the shore party. A Russian source states that the captain survived the accident, only to commit seppuku afterwards."
  • Hanna (LOC P&P) said:
    swanq thanks for this information and the correct spelling of the ship. We will update the record accordingly.
