 The report was said to have been from October 16, but given her arrival date in New York City four days later and her location at the time of her encounter with the storm, she probably encountered the cyclone much earlier in the month.The violent south-southwesterly gale lasted 15 hours when the vessel was probably located at 20.5°N, 47°W.The storm was initially assigned a single set of coordinates for October 6, and no attempt was made to reconstruct its track due to a lack of certain data on it.
