Scene of the steamer "Henry Clay", half-upon the bank of the Hudson, and seen from the side as a fire consumes her. In the foreground at right is a railway, which passes underground in the background; on the rails and the bank, people have congregated; passengers leap from the side of the steamer, and lifeboats receive some of their number while others swim for the shore. Title printed in lower margin.
