Butt-Millet Memorial Fountain
- ... that the U.S. Congress and President both had to give approval to build the Butt-Millet Memorial Fountain (pictured), which memorializes two men who died in the sinking of the Titanic?
ALT1:... that because William Howard Taft lost the 1912 U.S. presidential election, there was no ceremony to dedicate the Butt-Millet Memorial Fountain (pictured), which memorializes two men who died in the sinking of the Titanic?

- 16px This article is good to go! The prose length, date of creation, and the sources (those that I could locate on Google Books and Google News) check out and meet DYK criteria. I assume good faith on the offline sources cited in the article. I prefer the second hook, but both are formatted properly and cited in the text. --Caponer (talk) 03:23, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
- Striking ALT1, since at 221 characters including spaces it is well over the maximum length of a DYK hook. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:52, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
