Terror (Destroyer, 1896-1925)
Terror, a 370-ton torpedo boat destroyer, was built
in Scotland in 1896. During the Spanish-American War, she crossed
the Atlantic with Admiral Cervera's squadron, but was unable to
proceed to Cuba. Terror continued in service after the
war, and was not disposed of until about 1925.
This page features a view of a destroyer that may be Terror.
