Raising Perry’s Flagship Niagara

— The flag-ship “Niagara,” which led the American fleet under Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry to victory in the battle of Lake Erie, Sept. 10, 1813, after the first flag-ship, “Lawrence,” had been shot to pieces and abandoned, will be raised and rebuilt. The hull of the vessel now lies in twenty feet of water in Misery Bay, better known as Erie harbor.
