The admiral revealed to him that the governors of the forts would make little resistance, as they had been bribed. The ambassador was so pleased that ns soon as he had returned to land he had great trouble to hold Ills tongue. He was heard to prophesy in mysterious words that the famous passage would soon he forced. As there were spies on all sides the words of the ambassador were soon carried to Constantinople. When the fleet presented Itself in the Hellespont the catapults of the Turks manifested great activity. The bribed captains of the forts had been removed and others were iu their places.

He answered an advertisement for men to travel with a transport carrying horses, and sailing from Montreal to Salonica, receiving lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll# 3 5 for the i of the Mayor to omitig back. So on November 8 Rex left Montreal aboard the SS. St. Vrsula, 5,100 tons, of the British Government, loaded with 750 mules for the eastern theatre of war, and a crew of eighty-two men. The vessel reached Gibraltar on November 22, but as she attempted to steam by the fortress without entering, a shot from the fort whizzed across her bow, warning the captain his presence was requested. After these precautions the voyage to Salonica was resumed. Her cargo delivered, the steamer 00 : St. Vrsula left Salonica on Dec. 7, land about ten o'clock in the morning jf the 12th she was torpedoed without warning, about 50 miles south-i of the Island of Malta. Four | men were killed by the explosion. The vessel Immediately commenced to list heavily, and the crew was ordered to the boats, many of them with scant attire. “I was sleeping at the time,” said Rex when telling the story after his return to Canada, “and climbed into the captain's boat with but few of my clothes. Shortly after a submarine appeared on the surface, the VC-12, which I later learned was an Austrian boat, and commenced to circle round us. The commander of the boat stopped his craft, and in very good English inquired If any had been killed. He was informed by the captain that four men had been killed by the explosion. We were then told to get away from the vessel, and the five life-boats, carrying men, got safely away from the vessel. When 100 yards away, the submarine fired another torpedo, striking her amidships, and the St. Ursula disappeared in a little over a minute. I \«nils.
