Erie, Pennsylvania, in 1912 was a lake port and manufacturing city of more than 60,000 people on the south shore of Lake Erie. Its harbor on Presque Isle Bay handled shipping, and the railroads that ran through the city, including the Erie Railroad, supported rail shops and freight traffic. Factories making iron and steel goods, machinery and paper gave work to many residents, and local civic life centered on churches, schools and downtown commerce. Residents were also preparing for the 1913 centennial of Oliver Hazard Perry's victory on Lake Erie, an event the city was proud to claim as its own.
