SS Indiana's Hand Bell

Origin
The SS Indiana was a ship with a distinguished career, from carrying European immigrants, to ferrying President Grant in the last leg of his World Tour, to serving in the Spanish-American War, to its final years working in the Pacific Mail Steamship Company.

On April 4th, 1909, the ship ran aground and sank off the coast of the Isla Santa Margarita in Mexico. The bell was one of the many salvaged items.

Usage
When rung, the bell causes the ship the user is on to "run aground", even if it is far out at sea. The ship's bottom will be torn out, causing it to sink.

Collection
Myka found this bell after investigating a cruise ship that mysteriously sank after running aground in the middle of the ocean. Luckily everyone was evacuated to the life boats. She put discovered that the ship sank seconds after a director of entertainment rang the bell to alert passengers to a limbo contest taking place on the main deck.
