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
