Description
Excerpt from The Two Admirals: A Tale of the Sea
It is now known that the French were taken, in a great measure, by surprise. A large portion of their crews were on shore, and did not get off to their ships at all, and there was scarce a vessel that did not clear the decks by tumbling the mess-chests, bags, etc., into the inside batteries, render ing them, in a measure, useless, when the English doubled on their line.
