L32-2：A lost ship

/ə/ /lɒst/ /ʃɪp

The captain of the Elkor ordered his men to salvage as much

/ðə/ /ˈkæptɪn/ /ɒv/ /ði/ /ˈɛlkər/ /ˈɔːdəd/ /hɪz/ /mɛn/ /tuː/ /ˈsælvɪʤ/ /æz/ /mʌʧ/

as possible from the wreck. Nothing of value was found, but

/æz/ /ˈpɒsəbl/ /frɒm/ /ðə/ /rɛk./ /ˈnʌθɪŋ/ /ɒv/ /ˈvæljuː/ /wɒz/ /faʊnd,/ /bʌt/

the numerous items which were brought to the surface

/ðə/ /ˈnjuːmərəs/ /ˈaɪtəmz/ /wɪʧ/ /wɜː/ /brɔːt/ /tuː/ /ðə/ /ˈsɜːfɪs/

proved to be of a great interest. From a heavy gun that was

/pruːvd/ /tuː/ /biː/ /ɒv/ /greɪt/ /ˈɪntrɪst./ /frɒm/ /ə/ /ˈhɛvi/ /gʌn/ /ðæt/ /wɒz/

raised, the captain realized that the ship must have been a

/reɪzd,/ /ðə/ /ˈkæptɪn/ /ˈrɪəlaɪzd/ /ðæt/ /ðə/ /ʃɪp/ /mʌst/ /hæv/ /biːn/ /eɪ/

cruiser. In another chest, which contained the belongings of

/ˈkruːzə./ /ɪn/ /əˈnʌðə/ /ʧɛst,/ /wɪʧ/ /kənˈteɪnd/ /ðə/ /bɪˈlɒŋɪŋz/ /ɒv/

a ship's officer, there was an unfinished letter which had 

/ə/ /ʃɪps/ /ˈɒfɪsə,/ /ðeə/ /wɒz/ /ən/ /ʌnˈfɪnɪʃt/ /ˈlɛtə/ /wɪʧ/ /hæd/

been written on March 14th, 1943. The captain learnt from

/biːn/ /ˈrɪtn/ /ɒn/ /mɑːʧ/ /14th,/ /1943./ /ðə/ /ˈkæptɪn/ /lɜːnt/ /frɒm/

the letter that the name of the lost ship was the Karen. The

/ðə/ /ˈlɛtə/ /ðæt/ /ðə/ /neɪm/ /ɒv/ /ðə/ /lɒst/ /ʃɪp/ /wɒz/ /ðə/ /ˈkærən./ /ðiː/

most valuable find of all was the ship's log book, parts of

/məʊst/ /ˈvæljʊəbl/ /faɪnd/ /ɒv/ /ɔːl/ /wɒz/ /ðə/ /ʃɪps/ /lɒg/ /bʊk,/ /pɑːts/ /ɒv/

which it was still possible to read. From this the captain was

/wɪʧ/ /ɪt/ /wɒz/ /stɪl/ /ˈpɒsəbl/ /tuː/ /riːd./ /frɒm/ /ðɪs/ /ðə/ /ˈkæptɪn/ /wɒz/

able to piece together all the information that had come to

/ˈeɪbl/ /tuː/ /piːs/ /təˈgɛðər/ /ɔːl/ /ði/ /ˌɪnfəˈmeɪʃən/ /ðæt/ /hæd/ /kʌm/ /tuː/

light. The Karen had been sailing in a convoy to Russia when

/laɪt./ /ðə/ /ˈkærən/ /hæd/ /biːn/ /ˈseɪlɪŋ/ /ɪn/ /ə/ /ˈkɒnvɔɪ/ /tuː/ /ˈrʌʃə/ /wɛn/

she was torpedoed by an enemy submarine. This was later

/ʃiː/ /wɒz//tɔːˈpiːdəʊd//baɪ/ /ən/ /ˈɛnɪmi/ /ˌsʌbməˈriːn./ /ðɪs/ /wɒz/ /ˈleɪtə/

confirmed by an naval official at the Ministry of Defense after

/kənˈfɜːmd/ /baɪ/ /ə/ /ˈneɪvəl/ /əˈfɪʃəl/ /æt/ /ðə/ /ˈmɪnɪstri/ /ɒv/ /dɪˈfɛns/ /ˈɑːftə/

the Elkor had returned home. All the items that were found

/ði/ /ˈɛlkə/ /hæd/ /rɪˈtɜːnd/ /həʊm./ /ɔːl/ /ði/ /ˈaɪtəmz/ /ðæt/ /wɜː/ /faʊnd/

were sent to the War Museum.
