sengers and a million-doliar cargo of
lead and coal tar products from cap
lure by the British cruiser Essex, ac-
cording to the story told by Captain
Seembill, when the steamer reached

he was off Sable island. bound from

warned by wireless of war between
England and Germany. Later his OPP
orator picked up a code message from
the Essex which he judged was only
ten miles away.
The steamer Immediately was sent

drove through the protecting fog,
which did not lift until she got into
neutral waters.
