HC Deb 26 August 1909 vol 9 cc2294-5
Mr. MITCHELL-THOMSON

asked the First Lord whether he can give any information as to the stranding of His Majesty's ship "Hannibal" and the resulting damage?

Dr. MACNAMARA

His Majesty's ship "Hannibal," when on passage from Babbacombe Bay to Plymouth on 19th August, struck some submerged object between 600 and 700 yards off the Ore Stone, Tor Bay. She will not be docked until Saturday or Monday next, so that the resulting damage cannot be definitely stated at present.
