SS Mantola (1916)

SS ''Mantola'' was a passenger steamer of the British-India Steam Navigation Company. Launched in 1916 by Barclay Curle & Company, Glasgow, she sailed for less than a year before being sunk by a German U-boat while carrying a large quantity of silver bullion.
==Construction and career==
''Mantola'' was built by the Glasgow-based shipbuilders Barclay Curle & Company and launched on 22 March 1916.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=SS Mantola 1916 )〕 Entering service during the First World War, her short career was eventful. She struck a mine off Aldeburgh on 30 October 1916, while sailing from Middlesbrough and London bound for Calcutta carrying general cargo. There were no casualties and though damaged the ship survived.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Passenger steamer Mantola )
After repairs the ''Mantola'' sailed again from London on 4 February 1917, bound for Calcutta. She carried 165 crew, 18 passengers, and general cargo including around 600,000 ounces of silver valued at £110,000 at 1917 prices.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=SS Mantola WWI shipwreck reveals silver haul )〕 On 8 February 1917, while 143 miles off Fastnet, she was sighted by SM ''U-81'', under the command of Raimund Weisbach.〔 Weisbach torpedoed the ''Mantola'', causing her captain, D.J. Chivas, and the crew to abandon ship. Though there were no casualties in the initial attack, a party of seven Indian seamen drowned when their lifeboat overturned.〔〔 ''U-81'' then began to shell the still floating ''Mantola'', until being chased away by the ''Acacia''-class sloop .〔 ''Laburnum'' took the floating hulk under tow, but the line parted in the rough seas, and ''Mantola'' was left to sink, which she did on 9 February. ''Laburnum'' carried the survivors to shore and landed them at Bantry Bay.〔
