Small markings on front end page, else unmarked. <br> On September 8, 1934, The S.S. Morro Castle was heading to New York City from Havana, Cuba when a mysterious fast-moving fire broke out leaving the ship with no way to steer. Another ship attempted to bring the Morro Castle to New York, but the towline broke, and she was beached, still smoldering, just north of the Convention Hall Pier. Coast Guard stations up and down the shore, as well as hundreds of civilian volunteers, were involved in rescuing survivors and recovering victims. Ultimately, more than 130 of the 549 people on board died as a result of the fire itself, from drowning or from injuries resulting from jumping overboard.
