They rode off to the westward, and disappeared around a point.
FROM ALL QUARTERS. 1 33 " ' Say,' shouted a man from Company G after them, •you forgot your grindstone.' " May 12.. On Thursday morning, May 12th, the the gunboat Wilmington stood in close to the coast, off the town of Cardenas, with her crew at quarters.
She had come for a specific purpose, which was to avenge the Winslow, and not until she was within range of the gunboats that had decoyed the Winslow did she slacken speed. Then th...e masked battery, which had opened on the American boat with such deadly effect, was covered by the Wilmington's guns.
There were no preliminaries. The war-vessel was there to teach the Spaniards of Cardenas a lesson, and set about the task without delay.
The town is three miles distant from the gulf entrance to the harbour, therefore no time need be wasted in warning non-combatants, for they were in little or no danger.
During two weeks troops had been gathering near about Cardenas to protect it against American inva- sion ; masked batteries were being planted, earthworks thrown up, and blockhouses erected.
