Some steamers are armed, one steamer returned fire. The document on Page 144 of the document book is already in evidence. Steamer in strong zig-zag course. Ran towards her. Since steamer does not react to order to stop, a shot fired across her bow from a distance of 2,000 metres.
Crew takes to the boats.
Boats pulled out of the danger zone. I summarize the following. The depth charge pursuit lasted for ten hours. Steamer sent wireless report and opened fire from rear gun. Withdrew from ship only after four or five hits, then sank it.
