Tragedy struck the American-Hawaiian line’s freighter California as it sailed from New York to the coast. A devastating accident occurred just a few days into the journey when a water tube in one of the ship’s boilers burst. The cataclysmic event resulted in the death of one crewman and severe scaldings to four others, who were forced to disembark at St. Lucia Island in the West Indies.
