In sev- eral oeses escort vessels have been lost in a similar way as they threw themselves across the bows of an un- wieldy freighter. Changes of course by the whole convoy and great efforts on the part of the Canadian escort marked the course of the attack through this night, the whole succeeding day and night. During this time the com- manding officers were on their bridges under conditions of the greatest strain and discomfort. At the end of the second night relinforcing naval vessels were call- e up. Two of the first oi these were fortunate in coming upon a Gemi- an submarine lying in wait aliemi of the approaching merchant con- voy and lost no ime in depth- charging it to the surface where ii was soon dispatched. This , and others reported by various escort vessAls at a later date, made it clear that the attack was costly to the U-hoats.
