TO sustain their contention that Sampson

passages from Schleys report Of July 6,

true.
The fourth was that for three days some
Of the Spanish ships lay within reach OF

The commentators Soy: Upon an tho

important matters into which the court
made inquiry. the conduct Of Admiral

in the significant recommendation that no
