The article focuses on the rumors surrounding the Halifax explosion in Nova Scotia. The explosion is believed to be a sabotage by German agents. One rumor suggested that the captain and the pilot of the Imo were murdered by a crew member just before the collision with the Mont Blanc, allowing a German spy on board to orchestrate an accident in the harbor. The rumors erupted again when author Samuel Prince declared that the sabotage was a real possibility.
