This is the official report from the committee appointed by the citizens of Cincinnati to investigate the tragic explosion of the steamboat 'Moselle' on April 26, 1838. The report delves into the causes of the explosion and proposes preventative measures to avoid similar disasters in the future. Providing a detailed account of the incident and its aftermath, the document offers insights into the steamboat technology of the era and the safety concerns surrounding its operation. The committee’s findings shed light on the social and economic impact of such accidents on communities along the Ohio River. A valuable historical record for researchers and anyone interested in maritime history and 19th-century America.
