The article states, "Drawing alongside, the Cascade was able to pick up the two men that the Sacramento had been unable to reach", but the List of crew and passengers doesn't mention anyone rescued by the Cascade. —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 09:57, 9 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Not a contradiction, in that according to the source, Sacramento was given credit for the rescue as the ship that found the survivors, even though ultimately two of them were put on board a different ship. 78.26 _{(spin me / revolutions)} 11:27, 9 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
