參考譯文
打撈工作徹底失敗了。小船“埃爾科”號(hào)在巴倫支海搜尋了幾個(gè)星期之后,正在返航途中。返航前,該船船長(zhǎng)收到了大陸上發(fā)來(lái)的電報(bào),指示他們放棄這次搜尋。船長(zhǎng)知道日后還會(huì)再作嘗試,因?yàn)樗噲D尋找的沉船上載有一批珍貴的金條。
盡管船長(zhǎng)接到了電報(bào),他還是決定再試一試。他們用結(jié)實(shí)的網(wǎng)把海床搜索了一遍。當(dāng)一只箱子從海底被打撈上來(lái)時(shí),甲板上人們激動(dòng)不已。船員們開(kāi)始認(rèn)為沉船找著了,但海底沉箱內(nèi)的物品證明他們弄錯(cuò)了。事實(shí)上,他們發(fā)現(xiàn)的是另一艘沉沒(méi)多年的船。

木箱內(nèi)裝有水手艾倫·菲爾丁的私人財(cái)物,其中有書(shū)籍、衣服、照片以及水手收到的妻子的來(lái)信?!鞍柨啤碧?hào)船長(zhǎng)命令船員盡量從沉船中打撈物品,但沒(méi)發(fā)現(xiàn)什么值錢(qián)的東西,不過(guò)打撈出來(lái)的眾多的物品還是引起了大家極大的興趣。從撈起的一門(mén)大炮來(lái)看,船長(zhǎng)認(rèn)為那艘船一定是艘巡洋艦。另一只海底沉箱中裝的是船上一位軍官的財(cái)物,其中有一封寫(xiě)于1943年3月14日的信,但沒(méi)有寫(xiě)完。從這封信中船長(zhǎng)了解到沉船船名是“卡倫”號(hào)。打撈到的東西中有價(jià)值的是船上的航海日志,其中有一部分仍然清晰可讀。據(jù)此,船長(zhǎng)可以將所有的那些已經(jīng)搞清的材料拼湊起來(lái)。“卡倫”號(hào)當(dāng)年在為其他船只護(hù)航駛往俄國(guó)途中突然遭到敵方潛水艇魚(yú)雷的襲擊。這一說(shuō)法在“埃爾科”號(hào)返航后得到國(guó)防部一位海軍官員的證實(shí)。那次打撈到的所有物品均被送往軍事博物館。
