en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Grosser_Kurf%c3%bcrst Spangenberg was her captain in 1913 when she rescued the SS Volturno
In Memoriam: Wystan
LOC -- Your title needs emending -- "Grosser," not "Grosse" -- see the inscription on the lifesaving flotation ring.
Jim Rees
Also it's "Kurfürst," with an umlaut.
Anne (LOC P&P)
Wystan and Jim Rees: Thanks for pointing out the typos. We'll fix them next time we update the record.
In Memoriam: Wystan
The fellow in the center, wearing a business suit, looks like Lionel Carden, the British envoy to Mexico, who in October 1913 (about the time of the Volturno disaster) was expelled by Carranza and recalled to London, for his criticism of U.S. President Woodrow Wilson: http://www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/4390173258/

This NY Time story "TELL OF RESCUES BY THE KURFUERST sounds like the vessel in the photo above. But she sure isn't the BATTLESHIP SMS Großer Kurfürst, but rather is the passenger liner here.
