To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
One, starboard mizzen-topmast backstay.
One, through mizzen peak-signal halyards, which cut ) the stops when the battle was nearly over, and for the first time let loose the flag to the breeze.
This list of damages received by the Kearsarge proves the exceedingly bad fire of the Alabama, notwithstanding the numbers of men on board the latter belonging to our " Naval Reserve," and the trained hands from the gunnery ship " Excellent." I was informed by some of the paroled prisoners o% shore at Ch...erbourg that Captain Semmes fired rapidly at the commencement of the action " in order to frighten the Yankees/' nearly all the offi- cers and crew being, as he was well aware, merely vol- unteers from the merchant service.* At the expiration * According to the statement of prisoners captured, the Alabama fired no less than three hundred and seventy times (shot and shell); more than twice the number of the Kearsargo.
5 THE ALABAMA AND THE KEARSARGE. 29 of twenty minutes after the Kearsarge discharged the first broadside, continuing the battle in a leisurely, cool manner, Semmes remarked : " Confound" them ; they've been fighting twenty minutes, and they're as cool as posts." The probabilities are that the crew of the Federal vessel had learnt not to regard as dangerous the rapid and hap-hazard practice of the Alabama.
