Description
A brick fog signal building was constructed in 1900 to house duplicate, compressed-air sirens powered by oil engines. Two years later, two automatic Brown sirens, with copper trumpets were installed, and one of the two old wooden fog signal buildings was moved to the southwest part of the lot and converted into a woodshed. The characteristic of the fog signal was changed in 1906 from a three-second blast separated by twenty-seven seconds of silence, to a three-second blast separated by fifty-seven seconds of silence.Go to this link for the rest of the story. https://www.lighthousefriends.com/light.asp?ID=242
