EXPLOSION ON THE BATTLE SHIP GEORGIA,

Eight officers and men were killed and thirteen injured by the accidental explosion of two bags of powder in a turret of the battle ship Georgia during target practice off Barnstable in Cape Cod bay, July 15, 1907. Lieut. Casper Goodrich, who was in

charge of the turret at the time, was one of those killed. The cause of the accident was not definitely ascertained, but it was thought probable that a spark was blown back through a gunport and ignited the powder.
