Clio,
Have the KTB. No mention of what was said to/by the Norwegian survivors.
Here's what it says after the torpedo was fired:
"Treffer hinter Schornstein. Norwegischer Dampfer Pollux, Bergen, - 1196t, mit Passagieren und Stückgut von England nach Bergen - sinkt sofort. Besatzung und Passagieren - ca. 30 Köpfe, darunter Frau mit Kind - haben sich in 3 Boote gerettet, Segel gesetzt.
"Hit aft of the funnel. Norwegian steamer Pollux (from) Bergen, 1196 grt, with passengers and general cargo from England to Bergen, sinks immediately. Crew and passengers, about 30 people, including a women with child, rescued themselves in three boats, set sail."
Best wishes,
Michael
