air, throwing a smoke screen around
the larger ships. They hunted high
and low, all over the spot where she
had been sighted and all around it,
thinking to ram 1t or bring it to. the
surface, so we could take a crack at
1t. All the rest of the fieet-battle-
ships and ransports-weighed anchor
at once and steamed ahead at full
speed.
1t was a great sight. Any new ship
coming up would have thought the
British and French navies had gone
crazy. We did not have any fixed
course, but were steaming as fast as
we could In circles and half circles,
and dashing madly from port to star
board. We were not going to allow
that sub to get a straight shot at us.
but we almost rammed ourselves
doing 1t. 1t was case Of chase-tail
for every ship in the fleet.
But the sub did not show itself
again that day. and we anchored
again. That night, while the destroy
ers were around the ships, we slipped
our cables and patrolled the coast
along the Australian position at Gaba
Tepe, but we did not anchor.
The following day the Albion went
ashore in the fog, south of Gaba Tepe,
and as soon as the Cog lifted the Turks
let loose and gave 1t to her hot. A
Turkish ship came up and, with any
kind of gunnery, could have raked her
fore and aft, but the Turks must
have been pretty shy Of gun sense.
for they only got in one hit before
they were driven off by H. M. s. Can
opus, which has made such a fine
record In this war.
