The present ship of that name is nam
cd In honor OF Washington state,
Most of the early ships named
Washington were small brigs lightly
armed, which participated in the naval
affairs of the Revolutionary war, or IN
the private sea fights in the ensuing
period. The first ship of the name on
record was a public and privately
owned brig" which was armed with
twelve guns and ten swivels and this
gtupcndous armament overwhelmed a
nrig named the Georgia, which was
loaded with rum and sugar" There
we're a number of schooners and small
sloops Of private owners which bore
the name of the first president.

The first navy ship Washing'n,
however. was an eight-gun galley
which formed a part of Arnold's fleet
in the battle of Lake Champlain, Oc-
tober II, 1875. In this battle the
washington was commanded by Gem
erai Waterbury, who fought from the
quarterback of tho ship, and at tho
end of the engagement was the only
officer left for duty. She was greatly
