an almanac on. tho wall was. not ev?n
scorched. Abour'd'the Gromobol, "R shell
entered tho ward-room and wrecked tho

It was deadly work.on th? upper deck
where tho gunners wore without protec?

sand fragments, killing and wounding
men until the deck beenme a veritable
shambles strewn with dead and dying
and slippery with blood. . Not a single
gunner protected by casements, lost his
life. Tho value of protective armor was
"demonstrated whenever projectiles strupk
tho armored portion of the vessels.
There were many deeds of lierolsin dur?
ing the five-hours' battle, but the great?
est praise of all belongs to Captain Da
blsh,-of the Gromobol, whoromnlned at
his post, on the bridge from tho begin?
ning to tho end of the fight. When wound?
ed in tho back, he persisted in resuming
'eommnriitr dlri-ctly tho wound had been
dressed, but yielding to the entreaties of
his officers, ho sought shelter in the

tower, glancing upward to the overhang?
ing cover nnd entered through tho peep?
hole, killing a lieutenant nnd two quar
?ter-mnsterH. wounding two 'lieutenants
and again wounding Captain Dablsh In
the? head nnd breast. Not a single man
in the tower escaped. There being no
one to steer tho ship, the captain sover?ly
wounded, though he was, dragged him?
self to the wheel nnd managed It until
