<HTML>Hello Ted:
I have had that Cardiff address in my files for many years, but wondered at its validity.
Is it possible to obtain the crew list of the Motorship EMPIRE DAWN, a Runciman owned vessel, sunk on 12 September 1942 by the German raider MICHEL? My ship, the AMERICAN LEADER, had been sunk two nights earlier and twenty-two of the EMPIRE DAWN\'s crew joined us in the raider\'s quarters.
Twenty or so years ago I found two of the EMPIRE DAWN\'S survivors in England. Neither could answer my questions concerning the identities of crew members and both are now deceased. Hopefully, you may be able to assist me.
Cordially.
