Abstract

Allen's account of the 31 October, 1896, incident when Patrick Cunningham launched a section of one of his rocket torpedoes down the main street of New Bedford would appear to be based on the newspaper account published in the New Bedford Morning Mercury, on Monday, Nov. 2, 1896, see Accession No.2067 and the attached correspondence from Laura C. Pereira.
