The story OF the musicians makes
1t clear that the Audacious was but
one of squadron OF colossal battle
ships in the vicinity Of the position
where the lost sea fighter went to
the bottom and that when she hit
the mine the rest OF the squadron. In
pursuance Of the order OF the Brit
ish Admiralty, steamed away, each
to save herself from possible attack
by German submarines as at that
moment none among the squadron
knew that a mine had smashed the
Audacious.
The Audacious did not, according
to the story OF the Olympic's men
go down just after an accidental ex-
plosion in her stern, but was deliber-
ately blown up by the men of the
cruiser Liverpool to remove her from
the, track of navigation. The Liver
pool had taken off her commander
and those of the crew who had re-
mained aboard after the Olympic had
to abandon her effort to tow the
stricken warship into shoal water.
