To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We had been having some trouble in understand- ing the signals from the army telling us how to fire. They had now advanced to the town of Caloocan, but the distance from the Monadnock was so great that the flags could not be seen clearly, and alto- gether the signalling was not at all satisfactory. Cap- tain Russell of the Signal Corps, recently from West Point, came on board and asked me if I could not A WAR OF SUBJUGATION 205 arrange some plan for signalling between the Mon- adnock and Calooc...an by wireless telegraphy. He said that he had plenty of wire and batteries, and that he thought probably the Monadnock had some mechanics who could make the apparatus, which would be rather simple. He said that if I would furnish the knowledge and the mechanics, he would furnish the material, and the men to use the appar- atus. We talked over the matter for a long while, but finally concluded that neither of us had the time to make the necessary experiments. I finally sug- gested to him that I should give him a chart which was like the one the ship used, and that both on this chart and the ship's chart I would mark the position of the ship and of the church at Caloocan, so that if the army, at any time, wished a shell landed at any point, night or day, all he, the signal captain, would have to do, would be to measure the distance and di- rection of that point from Caloocan, and signal it from Caloocan to the Monadnock.
