Admiralty Case File #1187 Mobile, Ala. 1908

Joseph Howard vs steamship "Katie"
Lists four 'colored' men with addresses.  This is very unusual.  Since it's so difficult to research black ancestry as I am processing these records, whenever I find them I'll let you know.
They were witnesses in a boiler injury trial.
