Sunk by Deutschland on Oct. 14-1939, on a voyage from Nelson, New Brunswick to Garston with 912 standards of timber, 49 05N 43 44W, 3 died (Norway still neutral). All 21 men were taken on board Deutschland before their ship was sunk. They were later transferred to M/T Kongsdal, which was en route to a neutral port (Denmark) and was therefore allowed to proceed. Not until the Kongsdal landed the sailors on the Orkney Islands on Oct. 21 did the Admiralty become aware of Deutschland's activities. Kongsdal had been stopped en route by the British Navy and ordered into Kirkwall on the Orkneys for a contraband check, ending up staying there for almost 2 weeks before she was allowed to proceed to Denmark.
