摘要

There are few people who are not aware of the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, mostly because of the many books, films and a Broadway stage show. Unfortunately, too few people, even in New York City have ever heard of the burning of the excursion steamer General Slocum which burned and sank within sight of land with the loss of some 1,200 lives in New York Harbor on June 15, 1904. While the Titanic was a great transatlantic ocean liner carrying the rich and famous, the Slocum was a wooden-hulled, sidewheel excursion boat, carrying the poor from the lower East Side of Manhattan trying to escape the summer heat on a boat trip to a picnic. The General Slocum was chartered for $350 from the Knickerbocker Steamboat Company by the Reverend George F. Haas, Pastor of St. Mark's Evangelical Lutheran Church at 325 East 6th Street in Manhattan for the 17th Annual Sunday School Picnic. The church was located on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, now known as the East Village, but then called "Klein Deutschland" (Little Germany), because most of the population were German immigrants. The building, now over 100 years old, is still there and used as a synagogue.
