THE NAVAL MANŒUVRES AT NEWPORT
Reading edition
“The enemy’s fleet has been sighted off the starboard quarter, sir.”
“Call all hands to quarters! Clear ship for action!”
“This reminds me of Santiago.”
“The Duchess of Marlborough is alongside in her dinghy, sir.”
“Pass the word to cease firing, and have Her Grace come aboard.”
“Ah, delighted, Your Grace. I hope this noise hasn’t annoyed you.”
