Honest John Maynard and the Erie steamer tragedy
A passenger steamer on Lake Erie bound for Erie fought a fierce blaze after the hold caught fire. Captain and crew urged women first then all aboard to safety as John Maynard kept the wheel until the vessel struck. He perished in the effort, hailed as a martyr and the ship’s salvation by his steadfast courage. The account contrasts later oddities and sketches a court scene with a Yankee swindler and moralizing vignettes from the era.
