S.S. Celebes (Dutch Freighter, 1907)
In port, possibly when inspected by the Fifth Naval District
on 4 April 1918.
Built by Furness, Withy & Company at West Hartlepool, England,
in 1907, this steamer was seized by the U.S. Government in March
1918. Turned over to the Navy in that month, she was placed in
commission as USS Celebes (ID # 2680) on 6 April 1918
and was returned to her owners on 2 May 1919.
