Transport SENECA

This is a view of the transport SENECA, the vessel that transported the 71st New York from New York to Tampa, Florida. This vessel is typical of those used as transports during the Spanish American War. The identification number "5" is painted on the hull and stack for ease of recognition. The vessel appears to be full of troops, with some even climbing the masts
