American Reminds british Captain
10 salute abe Queen.
"Not oftef does United States man
of-war pass the Fourth Of july In a
British harbor." one of the older naval
officers on reading about the Brooklyn's
stay in Southampton is reported 10 have
said. ut is our practice 10 save the
B4i..s.e.s TIC ucoes~iey- u e-.4S tAr-e
q gun salutes on that day. as ncces-
sarily they remember whan happened
on the glorious Fourth and naturally
they don't feel like celebrating the an
niyersary. So before the Fourth Of
July our men-of-war almost never fail
70 leave a port where the British have
jurisdiction.
But. speaking of national holidays
and salutes, recall an Amusing incl
dent that happened in 1870. The United
States flagship Franklin was at anchor
in the harbor Of Malaga, Spain. in com
pany with a large British ironclad.
Capt. Carp Rodgers commanded the
Franklin, and viii call the ironclads
commander Capt Dun. When one
man-of-war in a harbor celebrates
national holiday it is customary for al
other warships in the same harbor TO
celebrate it also. Consequently early
in the morning Of May "a the Franklin
was prepared TO dress ship in honor of
Queen Vietoria's birthday, and at day
break our quartermasters were watch
ing the British ship, ready to follow
her motions, as we say in the navy.
Presently a puff Of smoke belched
out from the Briton's starboard bow,
and, supposing it 10 be the first gun
of the national salute, the executive
officer Of the Franklin cracked off 81
guns from her nine-inch main deck
battery and broke all his flags in yard
arm and rainbow dress, but when the
salute was over and the smoke was
lazily drifting away it was seen that
the British ship was not dressed, aud
had not fired a salute.
"a few minutes later a gig came
alongside the Franklin, and an English
lieutenant came on board with this
message:
capt Dun presents his compile
ments to Capt Rodgers and begs leave
70 inform him that If he hal known
that this was an American am fversary.
be would have been ready to salute and
dress ship. As it is, he will 90 so at
eight O'Clock
Capt Rodgers. on receiving this
message. saw that Capt. Dun had for
gotten that May "a was the queens
birthday, and he SO worded his reply
as to save Capt. Dun's feelings as much
as possible
Present my compliments to Capt.
Dun he said, and tell him that if had
known that he did not intend to dress
ship and salute for her maiesty's birth
day antil eight o'clock, would have
delayed my own salute until that hour.
Your morning gun was taken for the
first gun Of your salute and the Frank
lin went ahead without YOU
"Ry eight o'clock the British shin
banged away p times, and the Franklin
did likewise. But didn'tthe other Eng
fish captains In the Mediterranean
roast poor Dun when they learned that
he had to be reminded of the queens
birthday by an Americanl I believe
he had 70 give up his ship and go home"
