<HTML>Hello All,

I found in "Wolff's Telegraphisches Bureau" Nr. 2412 the following notice.

Copenhagen, 16 Nov 1916:

The Danish America steamer O s c a r II rescued on her voyage from New York for Copenhagen 5 English seamen floating in a life boat. They were crew members of the English schooner C a r l H i t z n e r who was sunk by a German submarine.

Neither in Lloyds War Losses nor in BVLAS I found this vessel.

Have anyone an idea about this vessel?

Thank's in advance.
