She was torpedoed and sunk in the North Sea about 5 miles (8.0 km) north east by north from Blyth, Northumberland on 10 June 1918 by a German submarine variously quoted to be UB-88 or UB-34 ...

This is the McGarel Town Hall, Larne, Co Antrim. Google Street View The building is French Gothic, designed (1868-1870) by Alexander Tate and paid for by one of Larne's benefactors, Charles McGarel, JP, DL (1788-1876). McGarel was originally from Magheramorne, Larne, and had emigrated to Demerara, in Guyana, and made a fortune in the sugar industry.
