u> SUNK ANGELUS WAS A PRIZE Seized at Sydney 1941, Molasses Cargo Lost Halifax, May 31 (CP).—Loss of the Canadian barquentine Angelus by enemy action recently means that Nova Scotia housewives will have to get along without molasses until a new shipment can be procured. It was estimated by wholesalers here today that about 56,000 gallons of molasses, much of it consigned to this Province, was aboard the vessel when she was shelled and sunk by an enemy submarine. She also carried rum and other cargo. One dealer said today "there is not an ounce of molasses available here now, and the cargo of the Angelus was being counted on to replenish stocks." The Angelus was formerly a French merchantman, seized at Sydney, Oct. 28, 1941. She was seized as a prize by Lt.-Cmdr W. E. V. Whitehead, R.C.N.V.R., and a writ was issued out of the Exchequer Court of Canada for her disposal by the Admiralty District of Nova Scotia. Her master at the time was Al-phonse Marie Convenant, but a Canadian crew was aboard her when she was blasted by the Nazi raider. Eight of her crew died from exposure and exhaustion during their eight-day lifeboat voyage before the remaining two survivors were rescued. The 338-ton, three-masted wooden sailing vessel was built in 1912, and was owned by Felix Chevalier. Lloyd's register gave her home port as Cancale, France.
