ple on the 23rd. At the moment of the Caradoc's
departure, the allied squadrons, which only left
Besika on the 22nd, had not yet reached the sea of
Marmora, on aceount of bad weather which had dis-
persed the ships. Admiral de Tinan with three
vessels only had arrived at Gallipoli, and Admiral
Dundee had made the first tower in the Darda-
nelles.

a division of 12 ships of the line, eight frigates, four
