Virginian-Pilot, December 27, 1899
A seaman of the British steamship Rhodesia, named Lawrence Henry, hailing from 
Belfast, Ireland, was brought from that vessel to St. Vincent's Hospital Sunday 
in the last stages of consumption. He died Monday and spent the first hour of 
his eternal Christmas "at home." Captain Bate is thus a hand short, but hoped 
to secure a former member of his crew to fill the place. He however, was on the 
Merritt's steamer Rescue at the wreck of the Ariosto, off Hatteras, and could 
not be reached in time as the Rhodesia sailed last night. Henry was buried in 
the seamen's lot here.
