Hudson Bay Shallo wer Remarkable Rise in British America
Reports from New York describe a dramatic, gradual land upheaval around Hudson Bay. Driftwood beaches now rise 20 to 70 feet, new inland areas appear, channels shift, and harbors become too shallow for ships. At this rate the shallow bay may vanish centuries hence, expanding British territory in America. A Vanderbilt statue project in Nashville gains notice. Wealthy subscribers funded a Commodore Vanderbilt statue to stand at the park, later to go to Vanderbilt University. The statue, crafted by Moretti, drew praise from Depew and Vanderbilt. Also noted are medical claims for Sarsaparilla and a steam laundry improving edge collars.
