It is not known if the ship foundered or strunk a mine. She sent no distress signal. Some wreckage and many corpses washed ashore on the northern coast of Ireland.
It is thought she struck a German naval mine, possibly one of those laid by the German Bremen-class cruiser SMS Berlin. Her wreck was found in 2006, and in 2011 a scuba diver placed a White Ensign on it in memory of her complement.1

Southern District
Burin
Personally, appeared before Mr. William Hooper Esquire, one of Her Majesty’s Justice of the Peace for the Said District – Robert Balson who upon his Oath saith that one night about 10 o’clock, in the early part of January last, Matthew Marshall came to the loft where deponent slept, he being there in bed, in coming into the loft, he inquired where deponent was and William St. Croix slept in the other Cabin, he then came and put his hand on deponent’s shoulder and said: Bob, you must get up and go along with me. The deponent dressed himself and went with him to his House, said was the house Marshall told deponent to come into the Parlours, when Matt Marshall told his wife to go out of the Room and as soon as she left Matt Marshall locked the door and put the key into his pocket and he then put a Book on the Table, which the deponent believes was a Prayer Book and a Pistol. Matt Marshall then said there is one thing I have to ask of you Bob, and you must do it or else the contents of this taking up the Pistol shall be sent through you. Deponent replied what is right I will do but what is not right I will not do. He told deponent it was no use to refuse. He must do it, for the oath he required deponent to take was that I would never take any liquor into his Mother’s House without he, his Father, or his Brother Richard should send him with it. Defendant said he never had carried any nor had he any means of getting to carry. Deponent did not take up the Book until Matt Marshall again pointed to the Book and told deponent to swear or he would shoot him or pass the contents of the Pistol through him. Deponent then through fear took up the Book and swore that he would not take any spirits to his mother’s.
Deponent was then going towards the door when Matt Marshall said there is one thing more I have to tell you that if I know that you carry Liquor into my Mother’s House unknown to me I will lay wait for you in the Path and have your Life, whom he defendant took the key from his pocket, unlocked the door and deponent went away and returned to the Loft where he slept, when he told William St. Croix what had passed at Matt Marshall’s house. Reason deponent did not make the case known was because he thought it could not be decided until the Judge came. Remembers to have told Robert Fudge of what had occurred within a day or two after it had occurred. On Sunday last the 2nd instant told his minister of what had occurred ant that he intended to apply to the Judge. He said, he had not before heard anything of it and told me to pitch it to the Devil.
