Dear Sir,

The Secretary,

C.O

Colonial Office, S.W.1.

Our New York office have asked us to take up the question of a claim against Hamburg Under-writers for damage to the stern frame of the S.S. "Nile", which arose before the war, the settlement of which had not been made at 4th August 1914.

The ship was originally owned by the Nile Steamship Co. Ltd., a Company incorporated in Hong Kong on the 30th December 1912 under the Companies Ordinances of Hong Kong 1911 and 1913. The vessel was operated by the Pacific Mail Steamship Co. for the owners and in 1914 and 1915 was under charter to the British Government. In 1916 it appears to have been sold to the Southern Pacific Co. of New York.

The amount of the claim is $1,027.16 which can be supported by the Average Adjuster's statement. Owing to the fact that at the time the damage took place and at the outbreak of war the ship was owned by a British Company registered in the Colonies, we should be glad to know whether a claim can be put forward through your office or ...
