The "S.S. Dwinsk", formerly the "S.S C.F. Tietgen" of 8137 gross ton, had been built in 1897 and sailed out of Rotterdam, but was later bought, renamed, and registered in London, for the Russian East Asiatic steamship Co. under the management of Cunard Shipping Co. Ltd. Not long after the outbreak of hostilities she had been commandeered by the Government, turned into an armed merchant cruiser and was sailing under the orders of The Shipping Controller. |
