Newport Surviving Stephano Passengers Recount Submarine Attack
Survivors aboard the Stephano and other ships told Newport of a submarine attack that sent passengers into lifeboats at 6:30 p.m. and left many penniless and shaken. Women, babies, and crew were rescued by U.S. Navy destroyers Ericsson and others, with Newport society aiding the victims. The youngest passenger was 4 months old Warren Driscoll of St Johns, who survived with 13 other babies as hospitals provided meals after a 14 hour delay.
