I take it you mean the photo posted on Paul Benyon's website. If so, then
yes, it is the same ship that would have been in service in 1918. She was
built in 1898 at Glasgow and served throughout the 1st World War on the Cape
station. She returned to the U. K. to pay off in 1919 and was scrapped in
1923.
