The tramp and the submarine, having got out of the
Baltic, coasted up the territorial waters of Norway, and then, having gear
a long distance north, turned south and struck the North-West roast of Ireland. Hero, however, they were encountered by a British patrol, and the tramp was ordered to follow her captor to Queenstown. After a certain distance had been covered the prize flew the German flag and sank herself. The crew, all of whom appear to have been saved, confessed that they were German Navy men. But this was not all. A boat which did not belong to the sunken vessel, but which was of the 'pattern carried by German submarines, was picked up by the patrol vessel. In it were two men, one of whom admitted that he was Sir Roger Casement. He was at once taken to London, and lodged first in Brixton Gaol and then in the Tower. According te.the Daily Mail's statement, Sir Roger Casement has changed very greatly in appearance from the time when he was • engaged in exposing the rubber atrocities in Putumayo.
