65 Hartford, but the other vessels of the fleet. I witnessed the terrible effects of the enemy's shot, and the good con- duct of the men at their guns, and although no doubt their hearts sickened, as mine did, when their shipmates were struck down beside them, yet there was not a mo- ment's hesitation to lay their comrades aside, and spring again to their deadly work. Our little consort, the Metacomet, was also under my immediate eye during the whole action up to the moment I ordered her to cas...t off in pursuit of the Selma. The coolness and promptness of Lieutenant-Commander Jouett throughout merit high praise ; his whole conduct was worthy of his reputation. In this connection I must not omit to call the attention of the department to the conduct of Acting Ensign Henry C. Nields, of the Metacomet, who had charge of the boat sent from that vessel when the Tecumseh sank. He took her in under one of the most galling fires I ever saw, and succeeded in rescuing from death ten of her crew, within six hundred yards of the fort.
