‘The wind in the wires made a tattle-tale sound
When the wave broke over the railing
And every man knew, as the captain did too
‘Twas the witch of November come stealin.’

That was a monster storm. Luckily we dotn have to worry about something like this ever happening again. With today’s communications technology there is no reason for a ship to put itself in harms way like that. It is still very baffling to me why they didnt wait the storm near Copper Harbor.
