HMS Foxglove (1915)
HMS ''Foxglove'' was an minesweeping sloop of the Royal Navy built at Glasgow, Scotland, by Barclay Curle and launched on 30 March 1915.〔Colledge, p. 142.〕〔''Conway's All The World's Fighting Ships 1906-1921'', p. 94.〕 She entered service later that year. During World War I, she and the other ''Acacia''-class sloops were used almost exclusively for minesweeping duties until 1917, when the Royal Navy began to use them as convoy escorts, a task to which they were well suited.〔
==Service in Chinese waters==
''Foxglove'' served on the China Station during the early 1920s.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=naval-history.net )〕 In 1921, she joined the Royal Navy light cruiser and the commercial steamer in rescuing survivors of the passenger steamship , which had wrecked on 3 March 1921 near Swatow, China, with a loss of around 1,000 lives; ''Carlisle'' rescued 221 survivors, while ''Shansi'' saved 45 and ''Foxglove'' 28.〔(Maritime Connector: Passenger Ship Incidents ) 〕
