Fine Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original manuscript autograph document stamped by Ottoman accounting manager 'Ahmed Vefik' related to sunken Tokat [Tokad] torpedo boat during Balkan Wars, (1912-1913). Folio. (34x 21 cm). In Ottoman script. 3 p. [MANUSCRIPT] Autograph document stamped by Ottoman accounting manager 'Ahmed Vefik' related to sunken Tokat [Tokad] torpedo boat during in the Battle of Preveza. The Battle of Preveza, in September 1911, was the first naval engagement fought during the Italo-Turkish War. Five Italian Soldato-class destroyers encountered five Ottoman ships off the Greek port of Preveza. Over the course of two days, four of the Turkish vessels present were sunk or captured and the city was bombarded. On September 29, just after the beginning of the war, the Italian fleet in the Ionian Sea began searching for Ottoman warships. At about 4:00 pm, an hour or so after war was declared, five Italian destroyers under Prince Luigi Amedeo, sighted two enemy torpedo boats at sea in between Corfu and Preveza. Outnumbered, the Ottomans opened fire but soon after chose to flee without making any hits. The torpedo boat Tokat steered north chased by three destroyers while Anatolia headed south followed by the remaining two Italian ships. After several moments of firing Tokat ran aground near Nicopolis. She had been hit fifteen times, caught on fire, and was completely destroyed by additional Italian rounds. Nine men were killed, including the ship's captain.
