Hadley of Ogden visits Messina on Italian voyage
In Messina a passenger note from Harney Hadley of Ogden describes arrival and shore impressions. He spots Italian ships near a harbor scarred by December disaster, notes the Spanish-influenced customs, and recalls a humorous meeting with an Irish traveler. He travels through the American and Italian sections, observes debris cleared streets, and visits the American relief areas showing frame villas built for Messina survivors. He mentions benevolent aid results and Spanish and Italian settings along the port.
