voyage to New York. The majority
of passengers were Greeks and Ital-

submarine at a great distance. She
came to the surface and made fuE

did SO. a shot which went wide across
our bow. We took this to be a warm

Immediately there was the widest
panic aboard Women screamed and
children chung desperately to their
mothers. The submarine. gaining
rapidly, continued to shell us. The
fifth shot carried away the chart
house.
