UK passenger lists do not record travel within Europe unless a ship called at more than one European port before travelling further afield.

Sandra would be correct in her comments.
Are you sure that the vessel concerned was MARLOCH?
MARLOCH Official number 121216, was a large, 10.000 ton steamer owned in 1923 by Canadian Pacific. Her normal route was Glasgow/Liverpool to/from Canadian east coast ports.
Documents in the National Archive support this.

I also searched British newspapers for 1923 using the search term "Marloch, Stockholm" there was no suggestion that MARLOCH sailed to Stockholm.

The 1923 logbooks of MARLOCH are available from here.

They will confirm or otherwise wether or not she did sail to Sweden.

Do you have an exact date that she traveled?
