Location
Montreal - Canada
Age
17 Years

10th November 1940

Although the scenery was still very lovely, it was not quite so hilly or sparsely populated as previously. We anchored a few miles away from Montreal at about 11.30am.

We must stay here until 2.00 pm tomorrow when we shall move down to the discharging berth. The “Vera Radcliffe” which was a few miles astern of us, ran aground and was holed in the bow. The “Iddesleigh” which was in our convoy outward bound, last voyage, passed us on her way up to unload. Everyone on board stared at our boat deck, wondering how on earth it would have got in such a state. In fact, people ashore were taking photographs and the men aboard a Creek ship, were very interested. We have not been able to go ashore from here but that doesn’t matter much.
