...miles off Portugal. Since it was 3:15 a. m., most of her crew and passengers were asleep. Suddenly, they were jolted wide awake as the squat French freighter Formigny plowed into the Doric, dealt her an 18-ft. gash at the waterline below the bridge. Speedily, Captain Grieg issued an SOS, ordered his 520 passengers & some crew members into the lifeboats, whence they were soon picked up by the Orion and the Viceroy of India, carried on toward England.
