Joe,

Yes, the time of attack is given (6:30 pm). Description of the steamer is vague (4,000 to 6,000 tons, which is high, but that's not a disqualifier). Torpedo attack from 500 meter, hit observed aft. Ship observed to sink after four minutes. An observed sinking is extremely significant. The location is consustant with ABERDON's course, there are no other ships listed as damaged or sunk that match, and no other matching missing vessels.

Best wishes,
Michael
