THE MONADNOCK.
True History Of the Monitor Bull
mt Mare Island.

True History Of the Monitor Built
Mt Mare IsIand.
The story of what is alleged to
be the history of the monitor
Monadnock has been so often told
of late that the true history of the
ship may now be received with
misgiving and doubt. 1t has been
stated that the Monadnock was
built in 1868 in the East and was
brought to the PacificC cast around
the Horn. That is true, perhaps,
as to the old Monadnock the yes
sci of which the monitor that
sailed this week is successor
in name and service. In
the early '70's the old Monadnock
was run on the Mare island mud
flats and there moored as unser-
viceable. 10 1873 or Whereabouts
Congress pass, d a bill appropri-
ating a large sum of money "for
the repair of the Mouadnock."
The repairing consisted of build
ing au absolutely new ship around
y small plate taken cut Of the
abandoned hulk of the old Monad
mock, which was allowed to re
mnin undis,rirbed Mt her moor
inps. Every session Of Congress
thereafter bill providing for al
appropriation "tor the repair Of
the Mouadnock" was introduced
to keep the Mare Island Navy
Yard going, and the new ship
grew slowly. She was designed 10
be built on the plans of the old
monitor type, but naval architec-
ture underwent marvellous changes
while the ship was yet on the
stocks, and it became necessary to
make material changes in her
form and equipment to correspond
with the new idea of turreted ship
construction. How much work
once finished on her was after
ward torn down and material built
in on new plans it would be i'm
possible at this date to say, but it
took over twenty years to bring
the Monaduock into that form for
service where a commission was
warranted. How much money
was actually spent on the ship,
which is built of ABSOLUTELY
new material from keel to truck,
except the single keel plate con
stituting the fiction of the original
hulk, it might be very difficult at
II is time tn state. 1t would re
quire an overhauling of the Con
gressional Record through period
of over twenty years. But it is
almost certain that she costs the
Government at least as much, if
not more, than any fighting ship
in its possession. The one re
deeming feature about the new
Monadnock is that she is now re
ga'ded as one OF the best fighting
ships in the Navy and equal to
ahoat as home defense
vessel.
