For many years I have been looking for information and photographs of this vessel called the SS Lord Dufferin, on which my grand father had been an engineer. My grand father did a painting of the above vessel (see attached) and a cutting of the accident in which she was evolved, this may be of may be of interest to your readers. If any body has a photograph of the vessel in port, or further details of the ship, including her crew, I would be very interested to see them. Yours Sincerely, Peter David Blake Cardiff , Wales UK
