My Dear Gait:
I have read with very great interest your
poem on "The Battle of Manila Bay," and concur
with Admiral Coghlan in the opinion that it is
a correct and most excellent account of the
battle.
With best wishes, I am

TThey say that no two men can see
And tell alike what has been done.
If that be true, I'll certainly
Be criticised by many a one.
As I have done my level best
To stick, in all details, to fact,
And labored hard to be exact,
I think my yarn will stand the test.

I ought to tell the tale aright,
As I was there, and in the fight:
And thankful I shall ever be
That fortune thus so favored me!

We seemed the instruments of fate.

Of mighty deeds of heroes bold,
In modern times or days of old!
Our youth will greet the thrilling tale
As sailors do the freshening gale,
And read it, both in prose and rhyme,
As long as men take note of time,
And hand it down from age to age,
A nation's splendid heritage!

From Cuba weltering in her gore,
And crying out in Freedom's name,
In untold anguish at our door I
From northern lakes to southern keys,
Our sympathy with her distress
Aroused the people and the Press
To fury at the cruelties
That wrung from her this wild appeal.
A MAN was needed at the wheel.
A glorious PILOT climbed the side,
And took us by this foaming reef,
Unflinchingly the storm defied,
And stemmed the tide of rage and grief,
That ever vainly tried to force
The SHIP OF STATE to leave her course!

then we assembled at Hong Kong,
And anchored in that harbor grand,
The finest in the Eastern land,
We saw that there was something wrong.
All vessels flew their colors low,
Half-masted, sorrow's outward show.
With anxious hearts we watched the scene,
And wondered what it all could mean.
The Harbor-master came on board,
In uniform with trailing sword,
And said our battleship, "The Maine
Was sunk, and half her people slain.
The tide had turned from ebb to flow;
She swung around, with cable taut;
A mine exploded from below."
This tale a sickening horror brought!

To-day believe a traitor's hand
Accomplished what his brain had planned.

A button pressed had done the crime;
And in Havana's ooze and slime,

Arrived, our squadron was complete.
She brought from home an ample store
Of ammunition for the fleet.
She made, according to design —
With transports and the Cutter, nine —
Six men-of-war the fight would share,
The Cutter would despatches bear,
And two would carry stores and coal.
The transports had been cleared for Guam,
Although Manila was our goal.
That was a sailor's ancient sham.
Of old, when ships were passing nigh,
With "Ship Ahoy!" the first one hailed,
The second one replied, "Aye, Aye!"
And if with orders sealed she sailed,
And " Whither Bound?" came on the breeze,
She promptly answered, "TO THE SEAS!"

British Governor, courteously,
Requested us to leave the port
Within two days, and put to sea —
A strict injunction from his court;
Because the neutral law was plain,
That we no longer could remain,
Since war had been declared with Spain.
As past the British ships we steered,
^^ Their sailors manned the sides and cheered;
Which told as plain as words could tell
A kindred nation wished us well.
Our men replied as friend to friend,
And with a " tiger " at the end!

At starting, gave a warning thump,
And then a crash, and burst in twain.
Ashore the broken parts were sent
To be repaired, and then we went
To Mirs Bay, thirty miles away —
We nowhere else could have remained —
And there for two days had to stay;
Because our Consul was detained.
When war began his work was done.
He reached Hong Kong to find us gone;
And when a tugboat started out
To take him off to where we lay,
She struck a gale, and turned about,
And waited for a calmer day.
Despite the gale, ere fall of night,
The mended pump was safely brought
From Kow Loon, where it had been wrought.

The ships, as they in sequence, came:
The Olympia with the Commodore
The column, natural order, led;
Her consort, then, the Baltimore
Sheered off to port, and next to head ;
The Raleigh followed third, her mate
The Petrel, fourth, the least in rate;
The Concord was the fifth to clear;
The Boston, sixth, brought up the rear,
Which was the senior Captain's place.
The proper intervals of space,
Four hundred yards, were left between
The ships in line to intervene.
The First Division this was called.
The second one then swiftly hauled
Twelve hundred yards to starboard, well
Abreast this column, parallel,
Where, by the Hugh McCulloch led,
The Nanshan and Zafiro sped.
The fleet-formation, thus arranged,
For three long days was never changed.

We covered, without stop or break,
Six hundred miles, a single reach;
Then sighted Bolinao Cape:
For ninety more we hugged the beach,
And had an easy course to shape.
We often felt a gentle breeze,
That blew refreshing from the east,
Not strong enough to crest the seas,
And when it stopped the heat increased.
At times the clouds would scurry by,
And sometimes overcast the sky;
And once in anger seemed to lower,
Across them forked lightning flashed,
And heavy peals of thunder crashed.

The last two fighting ships were sent
To reconnoiter Subig Bay —
They turned aside, and in they went,
To see if there the Spaniards lay;
For we had heard it was their boast
That they the place would occupy,
And any force we had defy.
Soon afterwards the Baltimore
Was sent to cruise in near the shore,
And there to watch, and enter, too,
As their support if that were true.
While standing close to Subig's mouth,
She seized a schooner sailing south.
The Spanish fleet, the skipper said,
Was lately there, but briefly staid,
And thence to southward had returned.

Of Spanish ships. At close of day,

And then we hastened on our way.

The guardian mountains darkly frowned,
And save the engines' throbbing sound,
A perfect silence reigned around.

A sudden light blazed on our port,
And one, to starboard, at the fort;
A rocket on Corregidor
Shot up on high. A cannon's roar
Awoke the echoes o'er and o'er:
Then, in the darkness, all was still,
And signals flashed from hill to hill.
[e scarce had hoped to run between
The sentries, on both sides, unseen;
And while we spoke with bated breath,
As watchers do in halls of death,
A lurid torch flared from our line,
And shone upon the rippling brine —
The Cutter's smokestack belched a flame,
That from the fresh-fed furnace came.
It glared a target for the foe.
Then Randall strove to douse the light,
And from the cruel heat below
His gallant soul went on its flight!

About Cavite, like a net,
To sink the daring fleet that came
To harvest Eastern fields of fame,
And break the Spaniards* sway!

The first one then to them replied,
It thundered from the Raleigh's side!
Before its echoes died away,

That though three centuries have flown
Since Raleigh's day, there's nothing known
In history more appropriate
Than that, upon a distant sea,
(To him a legendary world),
The ship that bore his name should be
The one from which the shell was hurled,
To start the fight, that closed the reign,
In other lands, of ancient Spain;
At last avenged his death, and wrought
The very end for which he fought;
Thus carried out his cherished scheme,
And realized his dearest dream.

The signal read, " Slow down to four,"
When up the Bay our course was laid:
So ordered that by break of day,
We'd find out where the Spaniards lay.
The Cutter and the transports knew
That they must stay well out of range,
And all the plans that Dewey drew
Were carried out without a change.

Dawn all nature painted gray,
A white mist hung above the Bay: —
It climbed each hill, and filled each dale,
And clothed the landscape in a veil;
The City wrapped in deep repose,
And dreaming not of future woes,
Was rudely waked. In hut and hall,
In palace, at the closing ball,
The boom of heavy ordnance fell
Upon the air, and broke the spell,
And told of coming war!
And as our threatening fleet drew nigh,
The young and old, the low and high
Ascended to each roof and height,
And clustering, watched the wondrous sight
Of battle from afar!

But sailing ships discharging loads,
Or waiting cargoes in the roads.

Seven other ships in line arrayed,

Already were prepared to show
That bravely they could meet a foe;

At six knots speed (with helms a-port),
The rate decided on as best
To fight a hostile fleet at rest,
A rolling wreath of smoke shot out —
They'd sent a shell, which halfway fell,
And bursting, caused a waterspout;
Then came the booming of the shell,
And afterwards, the gun's report.
The Concord, and the Boston, too,
Their largest shell, in answer threw,
And proved their range and aim were true.
Those from the dark Luneta fort,
And from Malate, all fell short;
So, as we passed them on our route,
From forms seen dimly on the shore,
Sprang fire, and smoke, and cannons' roar.
It seemed a wild and weird salute!

Unheeded, streamed from torrid sky,
Though, even through the smoke, the gleams
Were hot enough the pitch to fry.
Through hatches, almost hi a glow
From raging furnaces below,
And from the blinding, surface glare,
Arose the palpitating air:

And soon the fleets were face to face.
(Five thousand yards of open space
Between them lay), then Dewey said,
"When ready, Gridley, you may fire;"
And when he'd given the command,
It seemed that all the pent up ire
That long had slept, awoke again;
For, as the men began to train
The guns, was heard on every hand,
" Kemember, Lads, avenge the Maine!"
Before their minds arose anew
The massacred Virginius Crew.
All sailors ever thought it wrong
That they were unavenged so long.
Like some titanic monster chained,
And brooding o'er some hideous thing,
While ever crouching low to spring,
Eternal memory remained:
And waxing fiercer day by day,
Awaited restlessly the time
When we this sacred debt could pay,
And from our conscience cast away
The burden of unpunished crime.

Like fire from live volcanoes' lips,
And bursting shell aboard them crashed,
And wrought destruction on their ships!

About a hundred yards from shore —

Her people scampered off to reach
The fort, and left her on the beach,
Where she was piled a helpless wreck.

We made a loop, returned again —

Out sprang the fires, and madly spread,
And reached from deck to main-mast-head,

And everybody was alert,
Excepting seven who were hurt;
And those prostrated by the heat
Stood by, their labors to repeat!
It was by many of us thought
That this was why the Spaniards wrought
As little damage as we showed: —
Their armor-piercing shells were used,
Or else their shells were badly fused,
And when they struck, did not explode.

Flagship's signal-halyards waved
The number of the Baltimore,
With, " Vessel designated lead ;"
Because she had been sent ahead
To intercept a ship that came,
And slowly steamed along the shore —
La Esmeralda was her name.
Before we left Hong Kong, she craved
Permission from the Commodore
To enter, and to take away
The strangers wishing not to stay.
The Captain General showed his spleen,
And made her stay in quarantine,
Where she had fifteen days to wait;
For not an hour would he abate.

'he Baltimore then went as near
The forts as she found depth to run;
And with her starboard battery clear,
She opened up with every gun:
Then slacked her speed, and went dead slow —
We thought she'd got a vital blow.
The other ships were drawing nigher,
And straining at their utmost speed,
To help her if she were in need.
" She's hurt!" then someone sang out loud.
" Look ! Look ! She's hidden in a cloud
Of smoke — My God, she is on fire!"

out the line the Raleigh drew,
With starboard helm, and cut across,
And made direct to where she lay,
Assumed the battle when she threw
Her last shell as she steamed away,
Uninjured and without a loss.
As from the mantling cloud she broke,
We saw it was her powder's smoke.
/TThe Raleigh then began to pour
^ Her broadsides till the forts were passed;
The Olympia came on with a roar
The Boston opened up the last —
The batteries answered us no more!

'he Concord had been signalled, " Go,
Destroy the transport of the foe,
Near Paranaque." Off to port
She turned, and stood well into shore,
Without a pause at either fort,
While on her course she swiftly bore,
On by the Bay of Canacao,
She shelled the batteries as she passed,
And stopped, and gave the ships a blast,
That refuge took inside the pier
That juts out in Cavite's rear;
Then went and burned the Mindanao,
That flew her colors with the rest,
And through the battle did her best;
That served her guns with gallant show,
And stood to share in weal or woe!

A nd then the Petrel, " Pass inside,
^^ Destroy the ships;" for she alone,
With little draft, could safely ride
In Bacoor's Bay. Well this was done —
She sunk or burned them everyone,
Except the smaller craft she found,
And the Manila hard aground.
A ppealing in Sweet Mercy's name,
^ The Surgeon and two Sisters came
From out the hospital on shore,
In abject terror, to implore
That we would promise them to spare
The sick and wounded in their care:
But, when they had been reassured,
And told that they need have no fears,
That we would help to have them cured,
They brushed away their burning tears.

|avila, in his brutal way,
Had said we came to loot and slay,
Their church despoil, their homes defile,
And called us everything that's vile:
In proclamation freely used
Bombastic language, full of hate,
And viciously our race abused
In choicest Spanish Billingsgate;
And said the struggle short would be;
For God would give them victory!
/Tfhe balance of their naval power,
^ And both their batteries still combined,
Were wiped out in about an hour.
Their plans had fairly been designed —
They thought that it would help them most
To join the batteries on the coast;
For, thus they could, in reason hope,
United, with our fleet to cope.

Raleigh, Boston, Baltimore,
In order, as they come, lay to
At quarters, just as close in shore
As each could, with the draft she drew;
And watched until the Petrel made
The signal, " White flag is displayed
On Government Building." Then we stayed
Until the Flagship, for us all,
Except the Petrel, raised the call
To pull out near to where she lay
Before Manila, in the Bay,
And "Anchor at discretion," when
We came together once again.
55
THE BATTLE OF
MANILA BAY
/Tfhe cheers that burst forth from our ships
^ Could only come from Saxon lips!
And as we, singly, anchored near
The Flagship, louder grew each cheer.
But, when the Petrel hove in sight,
And steamed the other ships to meet,
With many trophies of the fight —
A genuine " mosquito fleet "
Of motley boats, towed in her wake —
The cheers made every vessel shake
From royal truck to garboard strake!

THE BATTLE OF
MANILA BAY
CL FRAILE.
TCre battle's smoke had cleared away,
On sped the Flagship without stay,
And proudly for Manila steamed.
Her bristling, burnished ordnance gleamed
From sides and turrets painted gray,
And battle flags above her streamed.
She signalled orders as she went,
As if dictating destiny,
And stopped abreast the battlement
That guards the City from the sea.
Majestic all alone she lay!
Thus challenged them to fight once more,
Then sent the transports nearer shore,
With Stars and Stripes at main and fore,
Which was to show them that she meant
To emphasize the challenge sent:
But finished was our victory;
For, LO, there rang out no reply!

RE1NA CKISTINA.
A nd now my simple story's done
~*' About the way we fought and won,
Beneath the fervid tropic sun.
I'm loath to close the tale;
And had I time, I long would dwell
On minor incidents they tell
That show our sailors face as well
The battle as the gale!
"What little more I have to say
Is merely in a general way,
To sum up how we did that day,
And why we could not fail!

THE BATTLE OF
MANILA BAY
'/TThe man behind the gun " has been
^ Known far and wide a hero true —
He, in the heat, and smoke, and din,
Did nobly all he ought to do!
By " Man behind the gun," I mean
To say Blue-Jacket and Marine.
^XJut there was one as brave as he,
Who, stifling in the heat below,
No thrilling scenes of battle saw.
With slice-bar, hoe, and devil's claw,
He kept each furnace in a glow,
And made the mighty engines go
That took us on to victory!
This, faithfully, from daylight hid,
" The man behind the shovel " did !
59
THE BATTLE OP
MANILA BAY
CASTILLA.
And some who are the "IDLERS" called,
~* Because they do not stand a watch,
Supplies of ammunition hauled,
Through ammunition hoist and hatch,
To feed the ever hungry gun,
And well this heavy work was done!
While others volunteered to take
At different stations, well defined,
An active part that they might make
A record for their Country's sake!
Such duties were to them assigned.
/7[his memorable FIRST OF MAY,
Ten thousand miles across the seas,
America's antipodes,
Whose sunset gilds our newborn day,
We showed what GREAT-GUN pointing means,
And struck the blow that broke the chain
Which bound the colonies to Spain,
In both the Gulf and Philippines!
60
THE BATTLE OF
MANILA BAY
And yet, we are not quite elate —
~* We paid a heavy price to Fate;
For Gridley's sacrifice was dear;
Though invalid, he would not hear
To holding back when war was near.
He did his duty when a rest
At home with those who loved him best,
With wife and daughters' gentle care,
Had given him his health again.
In battle he must do his share.
He died, a victim to the strain.
A Sailor-Captain without fear,
Of judgment keen, and brilliant mind;
A man to every shipmate dear,
A gentleman both true and kind.
In radiant letters stands his name,
Immortal on the scroll of Fame!

n every great emergency,
When we have fought on land or sea,
A man has come to meet the hour,
And show the world our latent power.
George Dewey is the living peer
Of those great heroes of the past,
Whose fame will through all ages last,
Who taught our foes our flag to fear,
And us, THE STARS AND STRIPES revere!
When this most glorious fight was done,
With cable cut, he stood alone.
Whenever called upon to act,
He showed the most consummate tact.
Excelling in diplomacy,
A statesman wise, he proved to be;
And though the task he had was vast,
Made no mistake from first to last;
But, with demeanor firm and bland,
Shaped all things with a master hand.
All hail him VICTOR near and far,
THE HERO OF THE SPANISH WAR!
62
THE BATTLE OF
MANILA BAY
A noble mind will justly view
The NOBLE things that others do.
Where'er our striped banner flew,
A living wreath of laurels grew
Around its starry crest!
July the THIRD before the Sun
A quarter of his race had run,
Another naval fight was won—
Another mighty deed was done
Among the Indies West!

MANILA BAY
sailors all will gladly own
That glory was not theirs alone.
With brains, as well as brawn and bone,
Our soldiers are the best !
Athirst, where tainted waters gush,
Ahungered, through the thorny brush,
With song they charged, in dauntless rush,
Up San Juan Hill abreast!
As ever both on land and sea
^^ We've onward pressed to victory;
So may our flag still glorious be,
And wave until eternity,
By future ages blest!
