The chief event o. the dav was tbe
admirafs relation of the events of July

sea or to the beach. He told his story
OF the historical occurrence in plain
words and IN unaffected styIe. but the
narrative was straightforward and to,
the point. indicating close familiarity
with all the phases of that event. He
said that lne Brooklyn had for a time
sustained the fire of all four of the
Spanish ships. and also the fire of the
Spanish land batteries. Exp,aining the
historical turn of his own flagship. the
Brooklyn, he said that she had not ap-
preached to within less than 600 yards
OF the Texas, and he had never consid-
ered MS vessel in the least danger.
He also stated, in response to an in
terrogation from Mr.. Rayner, that he
had never during the battle engaged in
any colloquy with Lieutenant Hodgson.
and that ne had not used the express
sion attributed to him by Hodgson.
This refers 20 the alleged colloquy in
