Put in another 3 gallons and they try again.

Well, it was a nice day to drive my '59 Bugeye yesterday, but I pushed it
too far and ran out of gas when I was on my way to fill up. I put in a gallon
plus, but couldn't get it to start. I'm aware that a previous owner put an
electric fuel pump in, but I only know that from the clicking I can hear when
I turn on the ignition, as I've never explored looking at it. When I put
gas in and turned the key, I don't hear the familiar clicking, and it seems
clear the engine isn't getting gas. Is there something I need to do to prime
the pump? Or, as I fear, did I kill the pump by running it dry?
Thanks for any help! It's another nice day, and we won't have many more!
Pete
