in the eighty fourth year of his age. He
was almost the last of the old stock of ia
val officers. He was with Hull in the
Constitution in 1912, when the renown of
the infant navy was won by the bravery
and seamanship of the men who humbled
the oyerweening power of England, and
he had served continuously for sixty-eight
years. His last years were spent in super
intending the operations of the Light
