SS Earnmoor
SS ''Earnmoor'' was a tramp steamer that sank during a storm in 1889. The survivors drifted for 21 days in an open boat and were forced into cannibalism to survive. ==Ship history== ''Earnmoor'' was built by Palmers Shipbuilding and Iron Company of Jarrow in 1887, and although owned by the Earn-Line Steamship Company of Philadelphia, was registered in England. At , she was 280 feet long and 26 feet in the beam. Engaged in the tramp trade, she did not sail on fixed routes, but rather relied on brokers to find cargoes. On 10 January 1889 ''Earnmoor'' struck a submerged rock in the Delaware River, and was stranded. An official Board of Trade hearing held at the British Consulate in Philadelphia placed the majority of the blame for the incident on the American pilot, but also criticized the master for allowing the pilot to leave the bridge, and for poor records keeping. The helmsman was also fined $22.16 for ignoring a summons and failing to attend the hearing.
