United States submarine S-51 today
reported that there were about 12
bodies inside the ship. One body was
seen Wedged behind machinery in the
engine room and others-were reported
In the torpedo room.
If the divers’ estimate is correct it
means that the bodies of 13 sailors
were washed from the hull by the
waves while it lay on the ocean bed
off Block Island after being sunk by
the steamer City of Rome last Sep
tember, and will probably never be
recovered.

stayed in the submarine and could
be reclaimed by the bereaved families.

With seaweed and water pouring
from the gaping holes in her forward
compartments, the S-51 was pulled
