Many thanks George, I have been unable to find a copy of the Dounis so far.
According to Miramar, SEA NYMPH, built by Leslie at Hebburn-on-Tyne, yard no.198, launch 14.10.1878 and deliv. 20.11.1878 to the Lynn Steam Shipping Co., 227 grt, 36.7 x 6.3 m, iron hull, composite engine. In 1906 S. RAISSIS, in 1907 ISMENE for G. Grohman, in 1944 (?) HELLY at 314 grt.
However, according to Lloyd's 1940-41, ISMINI (ex S. RAISSIS, ex SEA NYMPH), 314 grt, 170 t under deck, 129 nrt, iron hull, 3 masts, machinery aft by N.E. Marine Eng. Co. Ld. Sld., 43 nhp, owner E. & A. Fuskas, Piraeus, is not to be confused with ISMINI of 2399 grt built 1890 (ex SKIRA ex DIMITRIOS PATERAS ex LYELL), owner in 1930-31 G. Grohman & manager M. Steriotis, Piraeus.
