Steam Pump aboard the wreck of the Mahoning

[dfreeman]

This picture is from the Miztec.  The schooner/barge Miztec was built in Marine City, Michigan in 1890.  This was a bulk carrier usually towed by the Myron.  The Myron sunk in 1919 Northwest of Whitefish Point, Michigan.  The Miztec floundered in a severe gale on May 15, 1921.  THe strange part is that the Miztec sank a mile from the Myron that sank three years earlier.  The 7 people aboard the Miztec all perished in the mishap.

Here are a couple of pictures of machinery and the bioler.
