At 418.6 ft with a 50 ft beam, she grossed 4,826 tons and made 15 knots with a single screw when built.

Her first voyage from Genoa to South America under Italian flag began on 13 11 1883. In 1884, she was named SS Nord America only. She was chartered by the British government in 1885 to carry troops to Suakin, Sudan and in 1899 the Russian government chartered her to carry troops between Odessa and Vladivostock in connection with the Boxer Rebellion . In 1900, she was refitted by Palmers Shipbuilding and Iron Company and her engines were replaced with the new engines delivering only 13.5 knots. Between May 5, 1901 and March 25, 1908, she made 58 round trips between Palermo , Naples and New York City New York . Beginning in 1909, she was used solely as a cargo steamer, and on December 5, 1910 carrying a cargo of horses from Buenos Aires with a cargo of horses, she ran aground off Morocco .

The nihongo Sieges of Nagashima Nagashima Ikk Ikki , taking place in 1571, 1573 and 1574, were part of Oda Nobunaga s campaigns against the Ikk ikki , arguably among his greatest enemies. Nagashima , in Owari Province along Japan s Pacific Ocean Pacific coast, was the location of a string of river island fortresses and defensive works controlled by the Ikk ikki, which surrounded their Gansh ji monastery and which included Nagashima Castle, which they had captured previously. Oda Nobunaga attacked three times over the course of four years, before finally destroying the entire Nagashima complex.
