| [00:01.040] | --- lesson 32 A lost ship |
| [00:06.040] | --- Listen to the tape then answer the question below. |
| [00:11.760] | --- Did the crew of the Elkor find what they were looking for? why? |
| [00:19.960] | The salvage operation had been a complete failure. |
| [00:23.880] | The small ship, Elkor, which had been searching the Barents Sea for weeks, was on its way home. |
| [00:30.960] | A radio message from the mainland had been received by the ship's captain instructing him to give up the search. |
| [00:39.280] | The captain knew that another attempt would be made later, |
| [00:43.320] | for the sunken ship he was trying to find had been carrying a precious cargo of gold bullion. |
| [00:50.960] | Despite the message, the captain of the Elkor decided to try once more. |
| [00:57.160] | The sea bed was scoured with powerful nets and there was tremendous excitement on board when a chest was raised from the bottom. |
| [01:06.320] | Though the crew were at first under the impression that the lost ship had been found, the contents of the chest proved them wrong. |
| [01:14.680] | What they had in fact found was a ship which had been sunk many years before. |
| [01:20.680] | The chest contained the personal belongings of a seaman, Alan Fielding. |
| [01:26.320] | There were books, clothing and photographs, together with letters which the seaman had once received from his wife. |
| [01:34.200] | The captain of the Elkor ordered his men to salvage as much as possible from the wreck.^“ |
| [01:39.840] | Nothing of value was found, but the numerous items which were brought to the surface proved to be of great interest. |
| [01:47.200] | From a heavy gun that was raised, the captain realized that the ship must have been a cruiser. |
| [01:53.360] | In another chest, which contained the belongings of a ship's officer, |
| [01:57.720] | there was an unfinished letter which had been written on March 14th, 1943. |
| [02:03.360] | The captain learnt from the letter that the name of the lost ship was the Karen. |
| [02:08.880] | The most valuable find of all was the ship's log book, parts of which it was still possible to read. |
| [02:16.560] | From this the captain was able to piece together all the information that had come to light. |
| [02:23.200] | The Karen had been sailing in a convoy to Russia when she was torpedoed by an enemy submarine.^“ |
| [02:30.880] | This was later confirmed by a naval official at the Ministry of Defence after the Elkor had returned home. |
| [02:38.360] | All the items that were found were sent to the War Museum. |
