    The ship was built in 1922 and was 4086 grt. Owned by the Thompson Steam Shipping Co and sunk 1 April 1942 by U 160 in the North Atlantic. The ship was unusual, having corrugated sides but these are not apparent in the photo.

    " ... The very high shot-tower just erected on the Glebe side of Wentworth Park by Messrs. G. E. Crane and Sons, at their lead works, is not only the greatest landmark in the low-lying portions of the suburbs, but is the most attractive and convincing monument in the metropolis of the coming of a new era in Sydney. ..."
