Memorial oak to Nurse Isabel Clark in Oamaru (note the memorial has misspelt her first name 'Isobel').
Nurse Clark lost her life when the transport ship Marquette was sunk by a German submarine in October 1915. She was one of 32 New Zealanders, including ten nurses, who died when the ship went down.
