Fire on Kennebec steamer leaves passengers to boats
In a late voyage a New York bound steamer from Belfast to Eastport suffered a fierce fire with limited crew and no available water gear. Two men guarded the deck as the blaze spread, forcing passengers to abandon ship and land near Petit Menan Light before reaching the mainland. The incident underscores the absence of steamboat inspection laws prior to 1838 and highlights owner and master responsibility for passenger safety aboard the Kennebec line.
