Spain celebrates the Columbus discovery with a parade of fetes lasting to October. The replica Santa Maria, a 240 ton caravel, draws amazement beside modern ships like the Shenandoah.

Monument to Columbus Marking Watlings Island Discovery
Walter Wellman reports on the Chicago Herald's 1801 expedition to Watlings Island to locate Columbus's first landfall and erect a memorial. The team, aided by Governor Shea and local officials, sailed from New York to Nassau, then to Watlings, where they identified a site matching Columbus journals. They built a coral stone monument, raised an American flag, and prepared a ceremonial dedication amid tropical operations and local celebration plans.
