A MEDIEVAL NAVY.
Queer implements Of Attack and De.
fense That We're Ussd.

Queer implements OF Attack and De-
Tense That Were Ussd.
Very strange to modern eyes
would be the armament of Great
Britain's medieval navy. The very
names of many of the implements
of attack and defense sound queer.
According to the books, in the year
1887 the vessels of the navy were
furnished with "espringalds," an
cient spring guns; "haubergeons,"
coats of mail; "bacinets," small
helmets; bows, arrows, doublets,
targets; "pavises," large shields
placed at the sides and serving the
double purpose of protection against
the sea and against the enemy
lances and firing barrels" AS
early as 1888 cannon formed part
of the armament of ships, and about
1872 guns and gunpowder were
commonly used. Among the stores
belonging to one vessel of that time
were three iron cannon with five
chambers, a hand gun and three old
stone bags, probably for shot. An
other ship had an iron cannon with
two chambers and one brass cannon
with one chamber.
Among other implements of war
used at that time were cannon pa
%viors," or stone shot throwers, and
"murtherers," which were smaller
aud threw any kind of shot. There
we're also 'basilisks," sport pieces"
stock fowlers," "sakers' and
"bombards." The bombark were of
hammered iron, made of bars weld
ed and bound together with iron
bands. They threw stone shot
weighing between 40 pounds and
1875 pounds. A battery lof these
erected on a slip of lanA at the
naval battle of Chioggia (t3SO) be-
tween the Venetians and the Geno-
csc did great damage. They were
loaded overnight and were fired in
the morning.
Froissart tells Of a lombard used
at one of these ancient sic ges that
might be heard five leagues off in
the daytime and ten at mia hit. The
report of it was so loud that it
seemed as if all the dewitt in hell
had broken loose" Brass ordnance
was first asst in England in 1895.
The pieces had various. names.
Many of different calib ,r were
mounted on the same dec'S. which
must have caused great con fusion in
action IN finding for each If proper
shot.-St. james Gazette.
