Not to trust Wiki or anything, but according to this

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Henry_May

May was the only governor to be the subject of an assassination 
attempt. But that was 1912, not 1922.

Here's a piece about the dockers' strike of 1922, which would be more 
likely to delay ships:

I wonder if the two events might have become conflated due to two 
family stories gluing themselves together?
