Most persons have an idea that Rear
Admiral Robley D. Evans acquired his
nickname Of Fighting Bob" from
some gallant service in the navy. A
naval officer who was a cadet at An
napolis when Evans became a cadet
tells this story Of how he was chris
tened Along in 1859 and 1860 there
was a saloonkeeper named Robert
ID. Evans. who continually got drunk.
Every time this happened. and it was
several times week. FIVE or six Do
hcemen had TO be called TO carry the
drunken chap to Jail and he was
dubbed Fighting Bob" So the min.
ute q cadet appeared bearing the name
OF r. d. Evans the nickname was ap.
piled to him also Brother officers OF
the now rear admiral say that he got
the luckiest nickname on record.
