I just wanted to tell Lusitania afficianados about my mother's Uncle Harry Long,passenger 3rd class. He had been in the US (at the funeral of his older brother) William Long, who I think worked at Ford's( Harry embarked at Detroit) His twin Percy caught pneumonia here and died within a week. Harry told his mother he would be on the next Ship. This turned out to be Lusitania.No wonder the old lady lost the use of her legs for about 6 weeks. |
