Lyman M. Davis
Sold to D.M. Goudy (owner of Sunnyside Amusement Park), the Lyman M. Davis's
rigging was set with fireworks for a public spectacle. As part of the City of Toronto's centenial celebrations, the ship burned
to the waterline and sank offshore on June 29, 1934. C.H.J. Snider lead a crusade to save the Davis from this demise, but
failed. The Toronto Mail & Empire advertised the upcoming event. Diving Information South of Toronto at a depth of 45m
(148ft).
